Bug#93345: RFP: argouml -- ArgoUML: The Cognitive CASE Tool
Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2001-04-08
Severity: wishlist
I could find no CASE tool that supports UML diagrams in Debian, and
Argo is quite usable and stable, although not yet complete.
I found no other usable open-source CASE tool.
It depends on Java 1.2 (1.3 seems to work); since there's an ITP on
Blackdown jdk1.3 (bug #90243), I believe there shouldn't be any
problems?

The goal of the ArgoUML project is to build an object oriented design
tool that is:
A joy to use (we really mean it),
Actually helpful to designers when they are making design decisions,
Completely open source Java,
Leading edge (supports the latest UML specifications),
Modular and extensible,
Integrated with the web and other Tigris tools.
