Unfortunately, ArgoUML only supports UML 1.4.
Probably more than I can support it!
I would be happy if there were uptodate Use Case drawings in a model
that could be used to create svg or png for the wiki or a dynamic view
that could be explored in a browser.

In the past I have often used the UML tools/solutions available as Eclipse
plugins. And I mainly used the use-case part for generating those diagrams.
But without an export to .rtf such a tool is useless...

That would be great.
I do not have write access to that part of the wiki but I could
contribute some text and examples and links to the sites that I have found
for Graphviz.
It would be good to have some guidelines ( "Use the embedded Wiki tools
such as Graphviz and Gliffy whenever possible." "when you create a grphic
externally, add the source file to a child page as an attachment with the
name of the tool and how the graphic can be regenerated." If you create Use
Cases or other UML, add the model as a child page.")
What are people using for UML?
I believe most people use ArgoUML, at least I know the Neogia team did at
some point They also mentioned their UFO tool http://www.neogia.org/wiki/
index.php/U.F.O.
It has only the entity part, but anyway, sincerely I'm not a fan of UML
and such, I'm more inclined to something like Hemp where graphics are less
important

I tend to find https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Data+
Model+Diagrams enough for my needs.
For my day to day work, I rely more on search in OOTB *mode*.xml files.
Data Model Diagrams sounds convenient but they are also often blurring
things. When you have a data model with 800+ tables it's not surprising...

One can use Gliffy but it does not create a model so there is no
repurposing or analysis possible from the effort of creating the drawing.
I have only seen a few Use Case drawings in the wiki but I did not find
the source model that was used to create the drawings or even a mention of
the tool used and I did not check to see if they were in Gliffy or not.
I use ArgoUML which is free and open source.
It is pretty complete but like some other open source products, it lacks
a bit of polish and the docs are spotty.
