Several papers covering DSL design issues such as DomainEngineering are discussed in the DSLAnnotatedBibliography. This page contains several DSLBibliographyAdditions concerning design and methodological issues. Feel free to add your own pointers to other papers of interest (preferably with summary / annotation)!
