So the revised proposal is: for the UI/app layer, retain/introduce: * @ViewModel * @ViewModelLayout for the domain layer: * @DomainObject(nature=JDO_ENTITY | EXTERNAL_ENTITY | VIEW_MODEL) * @DomainObjectLayout for both: * @Property(domainEvent=..., ) and @PropertyLayout * @Collection(domainEvent=..., ) and @CollectionLayout * @Action(domainEvent=..., ) and @ActionLayout * @Parameter and @ParameterLayout where @ViewModel and @DomainObject(nature=VIEW_MODEL) are basically equivalent; choose whichever notation you prefer (and use a metamodel validator to exclude the other). thx Dan
