Hi,

I would like to ask you to have a look at the Orocos web page
(http://www.orocos.org/) where you can find links to the different
Orocos software packages. They all contribute to the same goal of open
source frameworks for robotics but focus on different aspects. SmartSoft
first of all addresses issues of component interaction for robotics.
Leuven provides an elaborate framework for control etc. Currently only
the implementation of KTH is a parallel implementation of the ideas
behind SmartSoft.

The different packages evolve in parallel since they address different
topics but they also share already many ideas. The Orocos meetings so
far also made clear, where and how the different packages meet each
other. In particular the minutes of the most recent Leuven meeting are
very helpful.

Regards

Christian
