Views on MDA....

[SamJolly]

Does anybody have views on the usefulness of MDA, and the role that EA has with this approach. Perhaps Executable UML is also linked to this, as championed by Mellor et al.

I think MDA is still in diapers.

I was reading an article by Grady Booch on the OMG site http://www.omg.org last night where he talks about MDA.

In my opinion, it'll be a few years before we can see true MDA tools--has been the same process for UML.  Even the books--at least the ones I've read--seem to agree that MDA is still a few years away.  I understand that there are some MDA tools out there, but to what extent they can produce a PIM?
