Ok, posted the basic exam on the JBB forum, asked for template creation. As soon as they create it, we can start filling it with questions and rounding the corners of details. Anybody else wants to share with me the task?
If the basic exam creation goes well, then we will ask also for an advanced one, one step after the other. Regarding your notes, I do agree on all of them, except two :) Yes, we can remove from the basic exam the part about privileged aspects and abstract aspects, but I think it's important that one of the objectives of the exam is to use aspect libraries, so intantiate concrete aspects that extends abstract ones. So, we can remove privileged and abstract aspects meaning "you don't need to write them", but I think we should keep is as "Know that there are aspects which are already written and you can extend". Regarding the @Annotation style programming, while I do understand its importance (no need for a compiler but only a weaver), I think it should be limited to the knowledge of its existence, and not a complete grammar knowledge. If we find it fun and useful to have AspectJ exams on Java Black Belt, we could then add another exam dedicated to this syntax as an intermediate optional module. The reason I see it whis way is not because I don't like @Annotation programming style (thought I don't personally use it), but simply because adding also that to the basic exam would put the bar a bit too high, since it's an entirely new world to explore, and I see that many people writing here on the mailing list uses the "traditional" syntax. Anyway I'm completely open to change everything if people here think my POV is wrong!
