[news.eclipse.modeling.gmt.amw] Re: [AMW OAM] Creating a (populated) ont

[g.hillairet@xxxxxxxxx (Guillaume Hillairet)]

Hello,

I've just read this post. In fact, i've already done the high order 
transformation that takes the weaving model as input and produces the 
transformation MA2OWL. The version available in this use case is quite old 
and has to be updated. The new version includes this high order 
transformation and also a textual notation for defining the annotations 
over the metamodel. I think this version could be available before the end 
of june, so the use case will be updated.

Best Regards.
