Participants

• Brian Lawler - I'm pretty strong on #1 and #2 above. #3 is a topic that interests me and wonder if anyone has any insights on this.
• Amelie Veron - I have vague memories about UML and would love to listen to a quick review and then discuss #2 and #3 !
• Alex Healing - My UML knowledge is close to nil but would be interested in sitting in on the session

• Olaf Bochmann - I would like to know what is new in UML 2.x and what kind of tools are available.
