[news.eclipse.tools.uml2] Re: Provided and required interfaces of port

["James Bruck" <jbruck@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The port could also be typed by an interface in which case it would be a
provided interface of the port.
Also, I believe that a straight Realization from classifier to interface (in
addition to interface realization) would be considered as provided
interfaces.    Kenn, correct me on that one if I'm wrong :)
