What is a Mixin?

Ruby (and, I hope, D): A mixin is a class-like entity whose methods/fields are mixed-in to the mixing class just as if the author of that class had written them manually.

C++: A mixin class is a non-primary base class, which generally provides only types and static & non-virtual methods. (If it contains fields / virtual methods, it's a fully fledged base class, IMO)
