    creating a child application template from said master application template, including the steps of;

    copying said master application template and designating the copy as a putative child application template, said putative child application template associated with the at least one metadata item having a designated scope of allowable modification; and

    in said putative child application template, altering the at least one metadata item to specify a reduced scope of allowable modification of the at least one attribute to create a child application template; and
