-------------------------------------

Thank you [~shawkins], I know this was huge review to go through. Can you elaborate on concepts removed, I tried to diff the commit, but no luck there.

Yes, for the ZIP archive we need a  extension to IMPORT statement or something like INCLUDE. I would think it would be good to have explicit notion of how these external DDL files are included compare to some pseudo name/order way to include them. Let's handle this as separate JIRA.

> Based upon the work on TEIID-2578 we should first offer the ability to replace the vdb.xml with ddl.  We can additionally include some of the work to represent additional pieces of the vdb as api level metadata objects (instead of in the admin layer) where possible.  Ideally this should support as much alter functionality as possible.
