Hello, thank you for encouraging me. I will surely need your help and I appreciate that.
In fact, I have already checked out the sources (somewhere mid December) and found the Registry class in oaw and its use in Extension.ext. However, I thought this approach would only be useful for using multiple model files for one single metamodel. Could you point me to the "(incomplete) examples" for two metamodels?

Here are some links to ideas of how to do it. I would guess that we need some help from the oAW xText experts, who are very helpful.
