[modeling-pmc] RE: New project -- EMF Registry

Ed,

A few comments:

(a) This sentence below is indecipherable to me. I know I'm a world famous
modeling redneck, but does this seriously need to have _nine_ TLAs in it? Is
there any way that this can be explained in some form of human readable
prose? (Yes, I am grinning while writing this!)

This problem was addressed in a modeling project independent fashion by the
GMT UMLX Model Registry which migrated to the M2M QVT Declarative Model
Registry. In order to support the migration of an OCL editor from M2M QVT
Declarative to MDT OCL, a further migration of the Model Registry is
necessary.

(b) This statement below makes me wonder if this _really_ needs to be a
separate project? Is "availability" a good enough reason to create a whole
new project? (This is really the PMC's call, but I thought I would raise it.

This proposal advocates making the Model Registry available as an
independent project, facilitating its availability and usage in a modeling
project independent fashion. An EMFT positioning makes this simple but
critical modeling functionality available to all EMF users eliminating
dependency problems. It avoids the need for a Model Registry migration to
MDT OCL.

(c) This proposal is missing a Scope section, which we generally consider to
be the most important of all. The content seems to be there, so a simple
re-organization could likely address this concern.
