Well it will generate both the common UML interfaces and the UML 14 implementation classes (if you use the meta cartridge). Take a look at both the andromda-all/metafacades/uml/common/project.xml and the andromda-all/metafacades/uml/uml14/project.xml, you'll see that both are generated from the same model, they both just use different outlets of the meta cartridge.
Basically the common UML module contains the metafacades that the cartridges use (all interfaces) and the UML14 module is the implementation of those common UML interfaces for UML 1.4. Does that make sense?
