   <introduction>
     <html:div>
     This document lays out the feature and API set for the 1.0.0 release of the M2T MTL project.  
     The MTL component is an open source component under the Eclipse Modeling / Model-To-Text (M2T) project.
     Its primary goal is to provide an implementation of the MOF Model-To-Text OMG standard.

   <release_deliverables>
	<html:p>
    The release deliverables have the same form as is found in most Eclipse projects, namely:
	<html:ul>
		<html:li>M2T MTL SDK (includes runtime and tooling components, with sources, examples, and documentation) (downloadable and update site).</html:li>
		<html:li>M2T MTL runtime binary distribution (downloadable and update site).</html:li>
		<html:li>M2T MTL examples (downloadable and update site)</html:li>
		<html:li>M2T MTL tests (downloadable and update site)</html:li>
	</html:ul>

      <preamble>
         <html:div>
         The implementation will be compliant with the core feature compliance level of the MOF Model-To-Text OMG language to start with (Galileo), then with the advanced feature compliance.
         A first stable version (0.7) will be available in 2008 and MTL 1.0 will synchronize its release milestones with the Galileo release schedule.

   <target_environments>
     <html:div>
     The MTL project depends upon on the Platform and other projects, which are mostly "pure" Java.
     MTL will be available on Eclipse Ganymede and Galileo. 
     EMF is used by the MTL execution engine for accessing the models. 
     The MDT-OCL component is reused to edit, parse, and interpret OCL as a sub-language of MTL. 
     MTL will target the same Java version as EMF, which currently requires Java 5.
     Eclipse Platform SDK 3.5 will be tested and validated on a number of reference platforms. 
     MTL will be tested and validated against a subset of those listed for the platform.
