You can add your own model. I mean as there are workflowModel.xml, applicationModel.xml, contentModel.xml, you can provide your
custom model to alfresco.

For details, refer this link.

Hope, this helps.
Thanks

The custom content types can be added in two ways. The simple way is to put them into the repository in Data Dictionary/Models and Data Dictionary/Web Client. This will allow you to temporarily associate new content types and aspects to documents. The more permanent method, and one that is needed if you have to upgrade or migrate your installation, is to place the model and client files into the extension/ directory. In the former case, simply activating the model will make it available. In the latter, you have to restart the server.

For simple content management, you won't need to recompile anything. It is all handled for you by the Tomcat environment.

Could somebody help me?
I've implemented customModel, it has three levels of deepness. It works as if it's a child of cm:content,
it won't inherit properties..

any help would be appreciated,
thanks
