[Moose-dev] Re: MSE Format, latest draft

Do you have non-primitive or non-constant, ie derived, default values? In general, default values do not fit well into a meta-layer architecture, as a value of the model level is to be specified at the meta-level. A default value can be constant or derived and primitive or non-primitive, of these cases only constant primitive default values fit well with a meta-layer architecture. All other cases require an expression written in a query language. Which is maybe better to be post-poned for a later release of FM3, we should first get the simple stuff right. AA
