The Neural Database is certainly good for storing the met-data.  Once you
have entered this, you have created a large part of your application,
without any program coding or generation, since the NDB is driven by the
data definitions that are stored in it.

document that you posted a few days back.  It sounds as though a neural
database might be a very good way to store application meta-data.  We
continually change the way we define applications and data.  Even though we
are pretty good at pushing those changes through, it takes much more time
and our application information is never as flexible as I would like.  I am
sure I will have more questions when I can fully understand what you have
posted to date.
