Hi NML-ers During OGF21 in Seattle we will have two sessions for the NML-WG: Mon. Oct.15 11am-12.30pm Tue. Oct.16 11am-12.30pm Starting point of discussion is our document providing the context for work. We are still looking at contribution to this document. It is far from complete. Please, have a look. (The document is available on the project web site on GridForge and it was sent to the mailing list earlier this summer) If you plan to present get in contact with the wg chairs. Regards, Paola and Martin

Hi, As discussed at OGF-21 we should be using UML for modelling NML. Does anyone have recommendations for open source / free ware tools (e.g. ArgoUML) that all of us can use to read/update the UML? Is an open storage format that can be stored in version control a requirement for multiple people working on the same data model? Some of our European NREN partners have recommended Enterprise Architect (URL: http://www.sparxsystems.com.au/) Do any of you have any experience with this tool? regards, - anand.
I've been very pleased with MagicDraw. It does have a community edition, which IMO the OGF work can qualifiy for. MagicDraw brings some interesting features in the area of code-gen and multi-team development (though I'm afraid those premium features come with a price tag). XMI is the meta-language that should allow tools to interoperate ... my experience however is that XMI doesn't really take you that far. -franco On 10/29/07, Anand Patil <anand.patil@dante.org.uk> wrote:

Anand asked off-list what software we used: We use OmniGraffle, which is draw-software (Mac OS only, kind of Visio). It is not UML-specific. I looked at MagicDraw, as suggested by Franco, but that has different features from what we needed. For now discussion about the different schemas is most important, so I picked visualization flexibility over code generation. That said, I'm fine to standardize on a tool or syntax for the final NML specs. Just saying that for now, the model is more important than the syntax. Regards, Freek

Hmm, that didn't come out quite right in e-mail. I'm not the one to decide, but I think it is a good idea. However, I have no experience in particular tools, so I just go with the flow. :-) Freek

Hi, Due to my thesis work, I am not able to attend the OGF in person. Is it possible to attend by phone? Regards, Freek Dijkstra
Freek;
Hi,
Due to my thesis work, I am not able to attend the OGF in person. Is it possible to attend by phone?
If someone could provide me with the times of the sessions I would be happy to make a conference call line available. Unfortunately it would be a US number. -jason
