1. Cut-based AOP for Ruby is neither alive nor dead. Matz has neither
accepted nor rejected the RCR that trans proposed. I personally think
that it's overengineered for too little value. That should surprise no
one.

2. Matz is the only one who would be able to indicate such a change as
"alive"; not trans, not me, not anyone else.

3. Even if it is accepted, it will not see the light of day
(officially) until Ruby 2.0 or later. It will never be in a 1.8.x
release because it's a major change.
