Hi John!

Thank you for your interest! I think it's fair to say that we are "close" to
having a fully-functional database reverse-engineering plugin, but we are
not there yet. Brian (ccd) has been doing some work recently (when he has
time) to get Max Andersen's prototype up and running. The prototype is here,
but has a few shortcomings:

https://github.com/forge/plugin-hibernate-tools

   1. Connection settings are hardcoded
   2. JDBC drivers are not included with the plugin
   3. Does not take persistence.xml into account, if it exists

In short, it works, but is not usable yet; however, these are all things
that can be worked on if you are interested! And I would be more than happy
to help you get together with Brian and get two brains working on this!
Would you be intersted in that?

No matter your level of commitment, I would recommend joining the dev and
users lists:

   - https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/forge-dev
   - https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/forge-users

Just let me know and I'll get you all the info that you'll need :)
