More basic questions please

If I may please, I would like to ask some more novice questions. Being aware
of the rival IBM technology (EMF) I have been trying to understand where
each company is trying to take its product.

I would like to know please if there is a road map for MDR. What are the
plans for this tool in the foreseen future? Are you working on a new
version?

Also will it upgrade to support MOF 2.0? Will it use CMOF (in opposed to
EMF's usage of EMOF)? Will MDR support UML 2.0 conversions?

IBM claims at the EMF faq that: " The Eclipse EMF Java mappings have been
optimized for in memory tool integration using Java and XML while JMI has
been optimized for metadata repository usage scenarios". Is this the way you
guys are looking at the comparison between the two (very similar) products?

Reiterating the question in the thread below, do you have plans to have MDR
evolve into a MOF central repository system/tool? I noticed the JDBC work
being done lately, but I was wondering about the importance of this aspect
in your road-map.



Best regards,

Tal Beno.
