Hi,
Well, you are a bit ahead of us I'm afraid.
As of version 1.2, we only support a web client based on spring webflow.
In version 1.3 the plan is to have a gui meta model, i.e. not to misstake
with model (model.design file).
In version 1.4 the plan is to have a model and editor for the gui.

Though, if you are to proceed anyway, I guess the best way is to check out
the code and see how we have done.
We are using contraints, and if you check outs from trunk, you will get the
ongoing work for 1.3 and there are (incomplete) examples of how to have two
meta-models.

If you are going forward with this we are very interested in your work and
you are more than welcome as a developer. This would be a perfect match for
what we are aiming for in upcoming releases.

regards.../Andreas
