[JBoss-dev] [AOP on JBoss (Aspects/JBoss)] - JBoss AOP 1.0 RC2 Released

[Bill B. <nu...@jb...>]

I'm pleased to announce the release of JBoss AOP 1.0 RC2. We're getting closer to our 1.0 release next month. Kabir Khan joined the team fulltime September 1st and has done an amazing job helping out. We put a lot of effort into documentation this release and have written a reference guide in docbook. Also, a number of things have been added to the framework. We've added an annotation model so that you can use that instead of XML. We've also added Java-Bean style configuration for aspects and the ability to plug in any IOC framework you wish.

Here's full RELEASE NOTES:
