Yeah, I am very interested in seeing that. Would be nice if this could
support multiple mapping formats and multiple (customizable) output
formats. Basically loading any of the supported formats into a
format-agnostic Java objects and then apply a chosen template to generate
output.
BTW, some of the Cayenne contributors/users have actually done some work
in this area:

It would also be cool if we could figure out a way to factor out common
effort done by Cayenne and WO[Lips|Project] communities into a common
framework used by both projects (ObjectStyle-commons?).
Also I wonder if tools like XDoclet (http://xdoclet.sourceforge.net/)
would be of any use on this project? (Haven't looked at it close enough
though...)
