Re: duplicated parameters in "create" methods

It seems that your metamodel does not conform to MOF 1.4 in a sense that 
it contains classes that "override" or "redefine" features from their 
superclasses. I suspect that several superclasses of the 
InstanceSpecification define attribute named "name". In MOF there is a 
constraint saying that names of all elements contained transitively via 
inheritance in a given element have to be unique - i.e. features 
overriding, overloading and hiding is not supported.
