AOP and RDF. Just a little note: coincidentally AOP and RDF work very well together. Both are about attaching stuff to object identifiers. In the case of AOP it's about attaching code, and in the case of RDF it's about attaching data. I.e. the perfect way to store AOP objects is as RDF tuples, where each namespace represents an AOP "extension"(/Java interface). [Random thoughts]
I've been reading articles about AOP, especially AspectForJ and it looks very seducing.
I agree with the intuition that it is in principle similar to RDF.
Having to ability to influence (wether adding code or describing) something from the outside is very powerful and fascinating.
