Hello,
In what extends does the specification language for defining archetypes and the language for defining templates differ ? Both take existing data models (RM types and archetypes) and constrain them as needed. It is often said, that archetypes are used to recombine RM types and templates are used to recombine archetypes. But the slot mechanism within the archetype definition does as well allow archetypes recombination within archetypes. And the constraining that is done within templates could as well be done using the constraining mechanisms of archetype design. Why are two specification languages needed ? And if one has elements that the other is missing, why can't those elements simply be included in the other, to reduce the amount of specification languages ?
Greetings
Georg
