Hi all,
it's sad to hear that argoUML was not accepted. I was planning to
apply for some of argoUML projects. But I still hope to do some stuff
for argoUML during my master thesis (I wrote about it here on mailing
list). Wednesday I have appointment with my thesis mentor so I will
ask about possibility of working on argoUML so I'll see what we figure
out.
