[forge-dev] Persistence Model Generator

[Lincoln Baxter, III]

Hmm,

Good questions. I think #2 would probably be the easiest, but we could offer
#1 as an alternative for those who don't want to use the maven build plugin.

I think #3 would probably be the most robust for future use. What kinds of
methods are you thinking of including for the facet?
