[Uml-devel] (forw) Modelling a database using Umbrello

Just for the record. I did find another tool called tedia2sql
(http://tedia2sql.tigris.org/) that will produce the SQL code to build a
database from a model. The interesting part is that it uses the UML
modeling features of Dia  (http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/) to
represent a relational database. It's all very clever.

It's strange that free db modeling tools are so rare. In fact I've found
none dedicated to the task. I've used several commercial tools that will
connect to any database and suck the model back but I'd like the same
functionality in a free tool.
