Marco;

The article's title is perhaps a bit unfortunate; the "Post-OOP Paradigm,"
according to the article, "do[es] not aim to supplant object-oriented
programming [but to] refine or improve or reinvigorate it."  Post-OOP, in
the author's sense, appears to mean "now that OOP is recognized as the
baseline," not "in place of" but "built upon."

As for "AspectJ" and "Aspect Oriented Programming," those are given as "a
case in point," an example of applying a Post-OOP paradigm but by no means
the only choice(s).  More relevant, I think, are the references to the
Pattern Language concept and to XP/extreme programming, both of which are
well suited to (and perhaps in some ways dependant upon) OOP.  In reading
the article, it struck me that the author seemed to have a hazy perception
of something in the distance very similar to portions of Squeak and Croquet.
In other words, the world is once again running in a breathless effort to
catch up with Alan Kay and those fortunate enough to work with him
(including this list).

  Hi.
  What does it mean for me as an developer?
  - -Can I use AspectS and release my source under MIT license.
  - -Can it freely be used?
  - -What limitations do I have at the moment or will I have perhaps in the
  future.

  Another thing: Does anybody know if AspectS is developed or reviewed by
  anybody? At the Homepage you can just find an old but stable version.

  I'm wondering about why there are not so many people interested in it. I
think
  that it is a great thing, althouh I don't know why "Post-OOP" because I
think
  that it is an enhancement of the OOP itself.

  Regards,
  Marco
