Generally, we should not create our own type of things as our own ArgoUML
profiles, different from the UML2 Profiles. We should, instead, attempt to
modify ArgoUML to use profiles more like UML2 Profiles.
How we should handle this general idea in this specific case at this
specific point in time, I am not sure. The direction should be towards the
standard but the speed and what steps to be taken first we will have to
relate to all other work going on.
