Nanning is LGPL. Aspectwerkz has it's own public license which I'm not sure about. AOPAlliance seems like a good idea, but I cannot find any licensing information. We should look into this one though. Hivemind is in hibernation due to legal issues. JBoss is LGPL Nanocontainer I'm not as familiar with. I thought it didn't have it's own AOP framework but reused one of the others (nanning). ContainerKit was in Excalibur (where is it now?) but it's not really an AOP or interceptor library is it? xinvoke is a Spice component and is under an ASL-like license. Uses reflection and proxies, but should be considered. Geronimo + Tomcat : I'm not sure what the state of interceptors are in these projects. If they have something we should look at collaboration. Just wanted to flesh out some of these ideas. Part of the problem with the existing AOP libraries is licensing. I also don't want to douse any excitement for rolling our own or collaborating with others, but we should be aware of what we can use and cannot. Last I heard, LGPL'd projects are no-no's for ASF. -- jaaron <http://jadetower.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
