TTree with TClonesArray

	As it has already been discussed a bunch of times on this mailing list 
it is not possible to the moment to derive *interpreted* classes from TObject. 
It is related to the difficulties of "on-the-fly" construction of TObject 
virtual table. There are more details on roottalk digest.
As this issue arises again and again (and undoubtedly is quite important) it 
might be useful to add the discussion of it to ROOT manuals, if it is not there 
yet.
						Regards, Pasha.
