Yes, UML2 models are saved in XMI (2.0)
format based on the schema at org.eclipse.uml2_1.0.0\model\UML2XMI.xsd.

Subject	[uml2-dev] Looking for UML2 to eCORE Wizard - Part 2

Found it.

With UML2 Examples installed, the model transformation is done via File
Import and File Export facities - based on the project type you are currently
in (eg. in an EMF project, if you import
a UML2 file it converts to ECORE).   I've only tried simple UML2 class
diagrams - and they seem to  be ECORE converted ok.

Import/Export actually means "transformation" - more than just
moving files around - which was the original purpose.

Question - Is UML2 files really only just XMI - the syntax looks awfully
close to XMI?
