Update SmartSoft

Dear all,

I just made another update on the SmartSoft cvs server to improve
performance with large data structures in communication objects. Due to
a hint of Boris Kluge, I changed the system interface of the
communication objects:

previous release:

    CORBA::Any get();
    void set(CORBA::Any);

new release:

    void get(CORBA::Any &) const;
    void set(const CORBA::Any &);

This is only a minor change at the level of the communication objects
but improves performance. I also updated the slides of my talk in Leuven
(slide 13, 14, 23, 24) which will be updated on the orocos server as
soon as possible. The cvs server now also includes the slides of the
talk. Please look at the examples how the get / set - methods for the
system interface now look like and adjust them in your communication
objects appropriately (takes 5 seconds).

Cheers

Christian
