I see! Isn't it funny: A German working for a US carmaker and an American 
working for a german carmaker?

Umbrello is currently doing the version 1.2, which is out for beta-testing. 
That team is very busy, as umbrello is part of the KDE-SDK for Linux.
As far as I can see, it is UML1.4 compliant. So we might get into the project 
and initiate and push for UML2.0.
BUT: umbrello is restricted to Linux for the time being. I noticed, you target 
to Win32. Is this a real must? I personally tend to Linux as well, as the 
Open Source Community is more focused on Linux.

Thanks, I will take a look.
