Re: [aspectj-dev] RE: [ajdt-dev] [OT] InfoQ built on AspectJ

To my mind, the key message was/is "this application was built using AspectJ". With the implied subtext... "AspectJ is used in the construction of real applications".  It's a bit like "Intel inside". I'm often pleasantly surprised to bump into folks using AspectJ in places I wouldn't have expected. The goal of the logo from the AJ perspective is simply to raise awareness that this is going on.

For example, if I see on the infoq site "powered by AspectJ" I can infer that AspectJ is used "behind the scenes". But if I see "better AspectJ modularity" I'm not sure I can infer anything? Perhaps that the infoq team like AspectJ?  But that's not as strong a message...

Maybe there's a way to work in both a key benefit that AspectJ gives, *and* the fact that it was used to build the given application, but there's not much space there!

That looks good.

I'm wondering about "powered by".  what if it was something like

  better
  AspectJ
   modularity

or

  better
  AspectJ
   structure

or

  crosscutting
  AspectJ
  modularity


where the 'better/crosscutting' and 'structure/modularity' would be gray and
smaller, just
like in the picture you have

that my not be the right words, but here's what I'm thinking. this image is
a
chance to get a short compact message out there about AJ. to say something
we want
to say. with that in mind, what's a key point we want to clarify / be-saying
about
AJ???
