> ArgoUML, Rational Rose or Poseidon

I could add that none of these tools produce standards-compliant XMI as far as I know. However, there certainly is a point in realizing that Umbrello or other open-source tools should be as compatible as reasonably possible with tools with a large userbase.

Old Poseidon releases (and Argo?) is UML 1.4 by the way, Umbrello is 1.3 I think. So technically they even cannot be compatible. Newer Poseidon releases use a mixture of UML 1.4 and UML 2.0; I do not think it is worth spending time for compatibility purposes until they have migrated completely to UML 2.0.

I'm not sure which UML version Rational Rose uses.

My biggest gripe with the open-source UML tools in general is the lack of compatible diagram formats.
