It looks like Bernhard stopped development 1.5 years ago. Which sure 
sounds like it's orphaned. Given that I've copied it over to 
sandbox/tree location (the last trunk state for it). I'm willing to help 
out in moving the library forward, especially since it's based on some 
of the core concepts I suggested. Who else is willing to help out in 
improving and finishing this lib? Note, that helping out involves 
thinking about adjusting the TR proposal so that it can be submitted for 
the soon to start up again TR2.
