Great! This dynamic simulation of the Comau is a great entry point for
the Orocos community :-) I will suggest to students of my robotics class
to play with it and contribute...
BTW, you seem to use libQGLView, isn't it? This summer, I hope to find
two students that use Blender <www.blender.org> as 3D visualisation
"engine"; Takis found out how to efficiently interface Blender to an
external program via a callback that is synchronous to the rendering in
Blender, and his prototype demo is promising. Feeding real dynamic data
to the visualisation would produce some very nice "screenshots" to put
on the Orocos pages :-)

I get "Object not found" errors when trying to subscribe to "devel" and
"users"...
