Various ongoing developments...

For your information:

- I'm now working on the interface specifications for robots, control
laws, task execution sequencing (using the inputs from the genom 
team), and Bayesian estimation. Don't expect to see fleshed out design
soon, but please feel free to give your inputs at this early stage already.
Again, it is my ambition to make a design which is much wider than the
short-term needs for Orocos, but to select only the relevant part for
implementation.

- Christian Schlegel and Anders Oreback have started prototype
implementations of Christian's communication patterns, with inputs
from Peter Soetens and Takis Issaris. `To CORBA or not to CORBA' was a
major point of discussion. Some good design conclusions have come out
of this. Coming soon to a download site near you :-)

- Peter Soetens is working on making the real-time motion control
  run on both to RTAI and RTLinux.
