[Timothy Cook <timothywayne.cook@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just to add to Luciana's comment.  The goal is to have the Ecore model
of the MLHIM Reference Model as 'the' source.  From there, Acceleo
with properly designed templates can generate, Ruby, Lua, Python,
Java, etc. code as well as XML Schemas.  We can see that Acceleo is a
mature functioning tool.  It is just that we need someone to invest
the time to properly set it up.

>From my preliminary investigations it is also possible to build CCDs
directly as Ecore models inheriting from the MLHIM RM Ecore model.
This approach does create an extra layer between the knowledge experts
working with the XMind tool and the actual software implementations.
However, pending full cycle tool development this is a workable
interim solution.

Regards,
Tim
