[qvto-dev] QVT 1.2 / 1.3

[Ed Willink <ed@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi

QVT 1.2 received Architecture Board approval at last week's meeting. It 
should be publicly visible as a Beta in a couple of days. The Final 
Adopted Specification generally takes a further 3-6 months to gather 
further rubber stamps from the Executive and editorial review.

So no changes are likely from the draft I circulated a few weeks ago.

The XMI files were revised to use
- www.omg.org rather than schema.omg.org in the nsURIs
- xmi:type rather than xsi:type
- MOF tags for nsPrefix
- redundant xmi:types on root elements

The XMI is loadable without problem in EA, MagicDraw or Eclipse, but 
fails in the OMG NIST validator - NIST investigating.

--------------

The QVT 1.3 Revision Task Force was chartered with me as chair.

I'd like to make some progress on defining traceability/transformation 
extension/mapping refinement so any comments on

welcome.
