Philippe,

It seems almost blasphemy to not say you have to start with a model.  I
agree with you about the role of the model.  In many cases its seems ytou
build the model after you build the system, to show others what you did.

Hi to all,

Do you think that a data model is mandatory? Don't you think that the
"killer app" could well have no data model of its own, but be flexible
enough to comply to any of them - depending on the local "point of view"
of its user ?

I means getting closer from natural language and just setting a graph
between concepts when a given data model is to be used.

Regards,

Philippe Ameline
