Hi,

Is there a path for transitioning Rose models to dia/UML?

IMO this is impossible. The petal file is closed-secret-proprietary and
even if it could be reserve engineered the format is subject to change
without notice. I would much rather that there was a suitable open
standard then RatRose and Dia could both conform to it. Unfortunately I
don't think that XMI is quite good enough yet. Other standards are
currently being worked on. In the meantime XML seems the best way to go to
me, since it would then be possible to write XSLT translators when a
standard is finally agreed on.

Andrew Marlow.
