Ed Willink posted in December that "UMLX is for discussion concerning
the UMLX graphical model transformation language.
Can anyone expand on that and say more about what this "exciting new
group" is about? A web/wiki link would be great as well.

[It came as complete surpise to me that this research project was
given its own newsgroup, when other projects struggle with overloaded
[xxx] prefixes.]
UMLX is a graphical transformation language that is intended to be
transformable to and interchangeable with the QVT Relations
textual transformation language. I have been working on this on and
off for some years in my own time. A list of papers may be found at
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/indextech.cgi/gmt-home/doc/um lx/index.html
Provision of support for UMLX has taken me along many sidelines so you
may find many UMLX-inspired contributions in MDT/OCL and M2M/QVT
Declarative and M2M/QVT OML. These resolve problems of model access,
OCL re-use, QVTr, QVTc parsing, OCL/QVTc/QVTr/KM3 editing, multi-sheet
editing.
Sadly I do not get enough time to work on the graphics which is my
primary goal.
Yes there really should be a Wiki. One day.

Ed Willink
