Thomas,
I wouldn't put the cascade delete on the type constraint, though (you don't want to lose the ability to enter phone numbers just because you deleted your last phone number... Wink ).
On CASCADE means that if you eliminate or update a PK, it will cascade to the refereced keys. If you eliminate the last phone number, you're just eliminating rows that reference th PK, so no CASCADE is done.
Those CASCADE are more like, if you eliminate the contact, all the info of that contact will be eliminated.
