Hi Mike,

We extend CWM as the DBMS catalog model for the Farrago project 
(http://farrago.sourceforge.net).  We have some Rube Goldberg XSL that 
allows us to reference CWM from our extension model without dragging CWM 
into the UML modeling tool (currently Poseidon).

An example script can be viewed here:
http://p4web.eigenbase.org/open/dev/farrago/catalog/xmi/resolveCwmRefs.xsl

In our extension model, there's a package named CwmRef.  In it, we 
create dummy classes with names matching real CWM class names.  When we 
want to reference a CWM class, we reference the dummy class instead.  To 
combine our extension model with CWM, we use this script to resolve the 
references and delete the dummy packages.
