Hi all,

I was just browsing the web, and ran into this:

http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2004/12/08/DynamicJava

And in particular,

Lesson: Bytecode Generation. A lot of people these days are generating
bytecode: not just Jython and Groovy, but AOP tools and XPath/XSLT tools
and others too. They're all doing it by hand without any abstractions to
help, and it's difficult and messy and they're probably not doing that
great a job.

It seems that Soot ought to be able to contribute here...  Of course
there's abc, but there's probably more areas where Soot would be helpful
too.
