Yeah, some times I happen to try to explain things in terms of "a" and "b" and soon I realize it wasn't effective. What I *think* it would be more effective in first place is *why* people should write apps that one can extend by layering other components on top of it rather than monkey patching or doing all sorts of incantations to achieve what they want. The spelling is important so people can understand how to implement their story (if they know the so called AOP) by using a given package. repoze.plugin just happen to make it easier to associate the concepts of AOP to the code and maybe attract more people. Cool package after all . Fernando _______________________________________________ Repoze-dev mailing list Repoze-dev@lists.repoze.org http://lists.repoze.org/listinfo/repoze-dev
