In case you've never heard of it (I certainly hadn't), Gliffy is a
Visio-like program that does everything through a Web site.  I played
with it briefly and it seemed quite good, which surprised me because I
hate most Web apps like this.  Anyway, it can handle UML and ER
diagrams, which is something Cayenne uses and could probably even use
more of.  The reason I mention all this though, is that they have a
plugin for Confluence, so you can do collaborative diagramming right in
a regular documentation page.  It is commercial, but they offer free
licenses for OSS.

Is there any interest in getting an OSS license for the Gliffy plugin
for Confluence?  I think it could lower one of the documentation hurdles
a fair bit.
