Title:
  Body::isDynamic semantics is not clearly defined

Status in Yet Another Dynamic Engine:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Does isDynamic means that Newton's laws skip the body? Or that forces don't contribute to its velocity? Various Translation/RotationEngines rely by convention on that Newton's laws skip the body completely.

There was a discussion on that topic http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.science.physics.yade.devel/1059 and we should draw conclusions now.
