* Description:          Command-line TAP Shell for Virtual Observatory

The VOTable format is defined by the International Virtual Observatory
Alliance to facilitate data exchange in astronomy.  This library
implements most of the specification and offers simple and advanced,
streaming interfaces.  Also included is a simple client to query TAP
servers.

A manual is available at:

http://docs.g-vo.org/DaCHS/votable.html

Previous packaging working had been done since 2009, and published
in the APT repositary documented at:

http://soft.g-vo.org/repo
http://vo.ari.uni-heidelberg.de/debian

Thus, despite this being the initial upload to Debian itself, to
likely makes sense to follow the package name and changelog in the
existing source packages.
