Re: [aspectj-users] AspectJ 1.9.6 (Java14) released 
Thanks Andy and Joseph for your work. Joseph really debugged into the
guts of AspectJ, quite impressive! The artifacts have hit Maven Central
and I had no issues upgrading one of my small private projects. Two
questions:

  1. Will there be an AJDT release containing AJ 1.9.6?

  2. Are there plans to use aspectjmatcher in Spring AOP instead of
     aspectjweaver? The latter only seems useful in Spring if used in
     connection with AspectJ LTW. This could be a great step ahead for
     Spring AOP with regard to making it more lightweight.

Regards
