I've never been able to figure out what AOP was supposed to mean. I once saw an explanation in terms of Haskell monads that made more sense than the Java explanations, but I still didn't make sense of it. Maybe something like it could be done with Python metaclasses. Here's a url that I quickly googled just now, though I don't think it's the paper I remember reading some time ago: http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/187310.html -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
