Yes, I have the time to do this (I use it in my teaching
and have an interest in keeping it running).

In the longer term this sounds interesting. My interest is in a language
in which models that include invariants can be expressed and from
which implementations that include invariant checking can be
generated. As part of this, I want checking of the invariant expressions
at model definition time, rather than runtime. At the moment,
Emfatic with OCL delegates does this for me. However, if another
language comes along that has good tooling and support, then
I might well switch.

I have a similar interest (models with invariants etc), and would like
to help in making emfatic better for this (and as a general ecore
editor). I think it is important to support multiple languages, a bit
like ecore does with its delegates. There are OCL delegates, I have
javascript delegates implemented, the Epsilon people might want to
support EOL delegates etc. I understand it is difficult to support
mixins in Xtext, but providing a base that specific languages may extend
would be very nice.
