well, the structure of the metamodel implementations is slowly taking shape. i 
have to say... the UML implementation is huge!!! its comes to somewhere 
around 600 classes - i've only generated a fraction of the code to deal with 
it and is already pushing about 11,000 lines of code. of course, the CWM spec 
is about 3 time larger than UML (really). the good news is that i figure i 
can generate most of the actual implementation too so we don't have to write 
tons and tons of code just to make the stupid metamodels work.

anyway, i'm progressing nicely on the code generator - i'm kind of factoring 
in the metamodel design as i go. so far, i can generate packages with all 
their imports and classes with all their attributes, references and 
operations (interfaces only).

so, if anybody wants to test this, please do - and tell me about any obvious 
compiler errors in the generated code.
