Hi,
What choice exactly? You mean why have FAMIX statically typed? Actually, it is not. Only its description in terms of Fame is. And one of the reasons why Fame is rather strongly typed is to make it easier to have it in funny languages like Java.
But, now that we are at it, declared types are not bad as long as they only affect tools and do not interfere with compilation and runtime.
Cheers, Doru

Famix can be seen as a statically typed language. For example Invocation is an association between two behaviouralEntities (if I recall correctly).
The question that bugs me is why (or how) die-hard smalltalkers [ :-) ] ended-up making that choice?
