have you guys read the uml specification??
I hadnt, but I downloaded it a couple of days ago and I've done a (very quick) 
scan through it....
there *are* predefined stereotypes, which we should implement. But in the 
specification it says that stereotypes are something like classes, which 
means the user can sub-class stereotpes and create new ones,..
very interesting whatis in the document.

It also has some uml modells of uml itself... I think we should take a look at 
them and see if we need to adapt something for the next version.
they are big changes but would allow us to make the tool really extensible, 
the way it should be.
I'll read some more, think about it and then write some ideas... just wait a 
little. =)

luis.
