MD*/DSL Best Practices - 2011 Update
In 2008, I wrote a paper covering best practices for model-driven development and DSLs. They cover language design, generation, transformation and interpretation, as well as a couple of best practices regarding organizational issues.
I have now revisited them and update the paper based on my experience over the last two or three years. That experience was influenced by more sophisticated DSLs, and my using MPS - which changes quite a couple of things in the MD* space.

Xtext Interpreter Framework
I have just published the Xtext interpreter framework. It can be found in the same GoogleCode repository as the
Xtext Typesystem Framework.
The framework generates helper classes for interpreters and provides utilities for handling environments as well as logging (including a nice log view for "debugging").
Documentation is available.
