What will the next generation of aspect-oriented programming 
languages look like? How will they be different from AspectJ? 
Must they support obliviousness? How will aspect interfaces 
be specified? In what form will open classes be present? Or 
will aspects turn out to be an instance of a more general 
and elegant modularisation mechanism?
