Forgiveness unnecessary.   I am delighted to see that you and I
are on pretty much the same track here.   As I see it, Ada has
a lot to offer for AO and, with private child units, the ability
to preserve encapsulation while enabling "cross-cutting" of
aspects.

Dr. Jean-Pierre Rosen tells me that this is a topic of interest
at the next Ada Europe conference in Toulouse.   Perhaps
some additional research and experimentation is in order.
Also, this would be a great paper to submit to OOPSLA, it
it can be submitted in time for the Oct 15 deadline.

If you can have a paper proposal ready by Oct 15, send it
to Haim Kilov whose email address is  haimk@acm.org
for possible acceptance at OOPSLA.

While I'm at it, Haim is pretty generous about OOP
in Ada and will be open to paper proposals in which
Ada is used to illustrate some new or advanced idea
in object technology.
