Wolfgang asked: > Is argouml represented with the OMG at this time?
The OMG isn't really set up to deal with open source groups. The only non-commercial memberships they have are Government ($12,000) and University ($500). When they do RFPs asking for contributions, they explicitly require the submitters to commit to a *commercial* product release incorporating the technology. Basically their whole structure and process assumes that members are commercial vendors. > I'm tentatively thinking about becoming a member with my > company BITPlan and would appreciate to learn to know other > people active in this area. Also I'm offering to represent argouml > interests with the OMG if there is need for this. If you decide to join and end up coming to the Boston meeting (June 23-26), let me know. I'm only 50 km away and will probably be there for part of it. I'm not sure there's any particular ArgoUML agenda which needs to be pushed the OMG right now (other than the global issue of providing for a way for open source projects to engage), but even timely reporting of OMG activities which affect ArgoUML would be a big help. As Markus said, we do attempt to track this stuff already, but somewhat indirectly through third parties typically.
