I did not understand this. I attached the diff against the CVS, so all may try 
my patch. I compressed it with bzip2 because the list mails are limited (to 
about 50k ?) per mail.  Or did you mean the additional support of the 
versions 1-3?

Do you have the specification of the 1.1 format? It read in the 1.0 and 1.2 
that in the documentation section may be  an entry for owner and  an entry 
for contact. 
I think it would be a good idea to implement the UML according to a standard.
We may decide for the version 1.0, 1.1, 1.3 or 1.4, but we should define the 
version of UML spec we want to support! 
In this case our xml file should be compliant to this standard.
