Gnome Dia has been quite good for designed classes and database tables. Also worth a look is gnome-db which provides a nice UI to the database. Only problem is that there doesn't appear to be anything that offers Visio's reverse engineer database option. I am looking for some dia scripts to generate dia xml from perl classes or databases thru dbi/odbc. I might have to write an xml generator by reusing code from GraphViz::DBI or just from scratch.
