Description Tom Ware CLA 2011-01-27 13:48:59 EST 
The goal of this feature is to allow a user to start with a predesigned persistence unit and add mappings to the entities in that persistence unit without the need for redeployment of the persistence unit. 

Static extensions defined for the extensible entity types prior to the application starting. 

Dynamic are extensions defined while the application is operating. 
The set of features we build for Extensible Entity Types will provide a foundation that can be build on by users that want to build multi-tenant applications can specify tenant specific extensions. 

See web page above for more details.

This ER will be the main ER for the feature set.  Each feature we add based on the extensibility requirements will also have a separate ER that will be listed in this bug.
