Cool :).
The html version is here: http://www.edpsciences.org/papers/aa/full/2005/37/aa441100f/aa441100f.html
The idea is nice: structured abstracts. i've installed aa.cls version 6.0 on adjani. Or you can download from ftp://ftp.edpsciences.org/pub/aa/readme.html
The A&A structured abstracts will be phased in on a voluntary basis during one year, and then there'll be a review to decide whether to make it obligatory.

* astro-ph will be renamed to a "super-section" of physics, it will become physics.AA
* there'll be four sections/categories, of which probably two are interesting to us:
physics.AC = cosmology physics.AG = galaxies including AGNs
* It's not stated on the page, but i assume that backwards compatibility will be retained, i.e. aliases will exist so that links to ".../astro-ph/ " will still work.
i guess that the stellar people who don't like astro-ph might be even more discouraged from using it if they have to accept (by this new naming structure) that stellar astronomy is a subset of physics :P.
