If you create your own REST interfaces, theres should be no difference between the Enterprise and Community. http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Scripts

If you are using CMIS, http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/CMIS#Aspect_Support, then aspects may not be supported in the version you are using. See http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/CMIS#Alfresco_CMIS_Compliance

Relating adding an aspect to a content, try using:

boolean addAspect(string aspect)

Adds a new aspect to the node. Returns true if the aspect was added successfully, false otherwise. The type is a QName of the aspect to add in either fully qualified or short name form. For example: document.addAspect("cm:translatable");

I succed in developing a web script that upload a document and apply a specific aspect to the document, so it should work for you too.

Relating aspect removal, same considerations for:

boolean removeAspect(string aspect)
Removes the specified aspect from the node.

Maybe you can find this link useful: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/3.2_JavaScript_API
Hope it helps.
