NB:  this is a shameless plug, but likely very relevant to this audience.

Hey all,

I'm a former SpringSource consultant, having used & influenced AspectJ for
years.  I really can't see doing any kind of OOP-based development without
AOP to complement it.  For the last several years, I've been doing some
great server-side, Node.js development, marrying OOP with functional
programming fantastically.  However, I have missed my old friend, AspectJ,
in that environment.

As such, I just wanted y'all to know that I've been working with Minko
Gechev (twitter:@mgechev) on his aspect.js project (
https://npmjs.com/package/aspect.js), bringing much of the patterns in
AspectJ to JavaScript, TypeScript & Node.js, but in a manner more native to
the JS world.  aspect.js is about to go to 0.8.0, hopefully soon.  It
supports all of the usual suspects:  before, after & around advice,
pointcuts, etc.

Also, since AspectJ can be used & has been used to pull off the equivalent
of stateful traits, I figured I'd also share our trait library for
JavaScript (TypeScript is a work in progress):  mutrait (
https://npmjs.com/package/mutrait).  Have a look at the readme to get the
jist.  It's currently at a 1.0.0-pre.9 release level, ready to go to a
first release candidate very soon.

Both projects are coming along nicely & thought it was worth mentioning,
especially if you find yourself in a modern Node.js project that uses the
`class` syntax sugar.
