Regarding #3, it is not a Guvnor issue. In fact, if you are
declaring types in the DRL file directly, you will face the same limitation.
Feel free to open the Jira for #3 against drools-core/drools-compiler. Can't
promise I will be able to get to that any time soon, but it is something I
think it is worth doing. <br>

<p>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p> I've been working with the Model feature in Guvnor 5.M4 and have some
questions:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p> 1. Is there a way to delete a fact type once created?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p> 2. When I declare a field as a Date it gets included as a
java.lang.Date and<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span>t<span style='color:#1F497D'>h</span>e
fact will not validate.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p> 3. If I have created two facts, the one created first cannot
reference the<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span>second one as the type of a
field. The second on can reference the first. It<span
style='color:#1F497D'> </span>would be nice to support this forward
-referencing feature. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p> I'd be happy to enter any of these in Jira if they are not already
present<span style='color:#1F497D'> </span>(couldn't find them).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p> Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
