Hi Adam, Can you provide details of the offending archetype? Looking at the AOM, the originalAuthor is a required attribute and this is reflected in the Resource.xsd. However apart from the list being non-empty, I see no other invariant to that states that the value of the originalAuthor item cannot be an empty string.
Therefore I would suggest that the Java IllegalArgumentException "null or empty originalAuthor" is too tight. A "not null" invariant seems reasonable. However, not being a member of the java implementation I will leave that to them to decide what to do here. If there is an issue with the Ocean XML output please feel free to contact me directly.
