[news.eclipse.modeling.mdt.uml2] Re: UML2 migration

["James Bruck" <jbruck@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Tom,

I was referring to the versions of UML as defined by OMG not the versions of 
the plugins.
The versioning of the plugins do not align directly with the versions of the 
spec.
The convention that we've tried to adhere to when referring to versions of 
the spec at OMG is UML x.x.x, whereas when referring to versions of the 
plugins we use UML2 x.x.x.

For example, the next version of UML (OMG spec.) will be UML 2.2  whereas 
the corresponding plugin version will be UML2 3.0.0.

Also, the version of UML 2.1.2 is implemented in plugins starting from UML2 
2.0.4 all the way to UML2 2.2.

It's a bit confusing since the versions of the plugins seem to align closely 
to the versions of the spec but that is coincidental.

Cheers,
- James.
