miUML Population Subsystem td.7 / Version 2.2.1 uploaded

[Leon Starr]

Hi Everyone -

I have just uploaded the first public version of the Population
Subsystem. There are three new items in the files section of this
group. The PDF of the class diagram and class descriptions are the
primary documents of interest for review purposes. In the interest of
making things as open source as possible, I have uploaded a zip file
of the native and some export formats as well. If you aren't on a
Mac, you won't use the native Pages & Omnigraffle formats. I did
export the diagram as Visio XML.

At this stage I am not entering the model diagrams in any proprietary
tools to avoid any ownership entanglements.

The current version of the Population Subsystem does not accommodate
generalization relationships. That is coming next. I've got a good
model sketch, but I haven't written it up yet. (Client work will keep
me busy the next week or so, but I hope to have another update in 2-3
weeks). Also I have a first draft of a data Type Subsystem and I will
probably post the sketch, minus descriptions, sometime tomorrow.

Finally, I am in the process of renumbering my document id's and
setting up a document registry so you can see the system. The
Population Subsystem is officially: mint.miUMLmeta.td.7 / Version
2.2.1 ("mint" = "model integration", "td" = "technical document")
Both the descriptions and diagram are components of a single class
model so they share the same doc ID and version.

As always, feel free to post comments or questions. And now I am
going to pour myself a Guinness.
