Subject: RE: Announcement from Technical Architecture


Yes, and there is a value add to moving a DTD into a UML model.  Perhaps to
integrate with other UML models, to update it with a Common Business Object
(oops!, Core Component), to add operations to reflect system behavior such
as workflow.    This is not an bidirectional, isomorphic process.

We can do that today - take a DTD and reverse it into a UML Model.  However,
since the DTD contains less information it is not 100% Reversible.
