I would suggest we don't include this list in the archetypes themselves, because it can easily change as more testing is done - and that would mean reversioning and releasing archetypes as this happens - even though nothing has changed in the archetype. So I would suggest we need to conceive of some functions in a registry service that provides this information. > > > > For me those visualization characteristics are more about preferences > of each tool/user.

I still don't see a clear better solution than BMM to our current model interop needs - today. My feeling is that something may emerge out of Ecore that can be usable. Right now, I am not sure still that it is semantically powerful enough. - thomas -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
