Nope.  No one working on it as far as i know.

Dia is always interested in supporting more file formats and standards,
especially when people are volunteering to implement them ;)

A built in XMI import export would be great.

If you are familiar with XSLT it might be an easier way worth considering.
Other enhancments have been added to dia using XSLT (although i have not
tried them out).

Compiling argouml with gcj would be an "interesting" approach.

You may have noticed i have a thing for code reuse and portability and
cooperation, if you plan to do this in big way maybe you could get some of
the Kivio developers to cooperate (random suggestion of the day).

Why do i keep doing this?  These emails and these links get archived on
the web, and it affects a certain very popular search engine.  A few
months ago Dia was not the first listed item when you searched using the
word Dia but it is now.  Link early, link often.
