Tiger is the code name for Java 1.5, which is (finally) going to have
support for generics. Which rocks. Attribute oriented programming is
something else entirely, but essentially boils down to marking methods
and class attributes in some way that can later be used sensibly. An
obvious example of an implementation would be XDoclet
