We are not alone! "Where other MDA tools are generating programmingcode, Codeless chooses not to generate code at all".
OK, phpPeanuts is not an MDA tool (it has no fancy modeling GUI). But it does generate application behavior straight from the metamodel, without generating code. And we did not need "a decade of know-how in maintaining systems with more than 30 million lines of generated code" to understand that it is not necessary to generate code, that generating code is only generating a maintenance problem.
Though free for download, Codeless does not seem to be open source. Nevertheless, it is good to have other advocates of "no code generation" MDA/D. Let's hope they are successfull.
