Hi Walter, thanks for your offer to help with the development of AndroMDA. See my comments below.

Yes, any help would be very much appreciated! At the moment, we are in the middle of making AndroMDA 3.0 ready for a first release. I'm sure you have seen our milestone plan on the ReleaseStrategy page in the Wikiweb (http://team.andromda.org/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=ReleaseStrategy). I'd like to have the team slow down coding for a while and speed up documentation writing. It is very important to stabilize the project now and deliver a smooth "touch down" for the new release. So, if you would be able to help with documentation, it would be great! A step by step intro for new AndroMDA users, documentation about how to write a cartridge, documentation about the new service-discovery-based architecture with PicoContainer, etc, etc. Tons of Anakia pages have to be written to make newbies able to use AndroMDA 3.0. Oh, and 2.x oldies need a migration plan about how to port old cartridges into the new 3.0 architecture with MMFs and everything. And: the car-rental-system sample has to be ported to use bpm4struts and the other samples (like model-report) have to be ported to AndroMDA 3.0 in general. I think the best thing would be to start a discussion on the andromda-user mailing list about the documentation that our users need. Ask them and try to establish a documentation writing roadmap, then get back and discuss it with us all. > > Regards, > > Walter Thanks a lot...
