Re: Dynamic configuration

Hi Vincent.

Today I implemented the feature of being able to add completely new
advices at runtime. This will be included in the next official release
(this or next week).

If you (after a while) are feeling constraint in what you want to be
able to do, just drop me an email telling me know what you need and we
can have a talk about it.

It is in my highest interest to make AspectWerkz a *very* dynamic framework.

Sincerely, Jonas.
