Whoops didn't mean to nominate for Gutsy, I can never keep the names straight.
I intended to nominate for 8.04, 8.10, 9.04

It has come to my attention that RocRail is not yet part of the distribution.
I am amazed about that. Please correct that omission...

Make it so...

[needs-packaging] Rocrail

Rocrail is a model train layout control program. Rocrail with the appropriate hardware allows you to control trains directly from your computer, and even have the computer run trains automatically for you.

License: GPLv3 http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0-standalone.html
Notes: Rocrail uses 2 main programs, a Server and a Client. These programs work with each other using Internet protocols, and do not need to be on the same computer. You can use Rocrail from a single computer connected directly to your layout, and you can also control your layout from any computer on your home network, or over the Internet. Rocrail also has a web interface, which will let you run the layout from a web browser such as Firefox. The Rocrail project supports a variety of commercial and DIY hardware for communication with the layout and trains.
