And the forum has re-reached its cruise pace since the winners are known .... (

[Junilu Lacar]

Yes W., that seems to be the sad fate of this and the Process forum. On the other hand, it's a good reason to promote books more often here. Do you have any suggestions?

[Matts Smith]

The reason why this forum is not popular is because UML use is not as widely spread as java for example. Of all the programmers I know (and I know a lot of them) I'm the only one using UML at work (and that's just a little UML).
any comments?

[raj sekhar]

.....and that is true. Not many workshops really are taking steps to have a complete design document using uml in place due to various constraints.I want to use UML as much as possible but it just seems not possible with tighter deadlines and user requirements....any buyers?

[David O'Meara]

Matts and Raj,
Rather than trying to have this conversation here, I've moved it to a new thread.
Changing the topic of a thread half way through the conversation (sometimes called thread hijacking) makes it difficult for others to find and can hinder the previous conversations (although I think this one is over )
Hopefuly the thread will pick up again.
Dave.
