[modisco-dev] MoDisco 1.5.1M2 amputations - UML2 and BIRT
|
Hi
It has become clear [1] that the MoDisco support for UML has been
catastrophically broken since at least 2013, and probably since 2012
when UML2 4.0 changed the nsURI for the addition of UML 2.4 support.
In the absence of community support to rework the ATL transformations
that have obsolete metamodel references, there is no point retaining
functionality that can only waste user's time. UML2 support will
therefore be amputated in three weeks time for 1.5.1M2. If you want to
step up to retain UML2, please add a comment to [1].
It has also become clear [2] that the BIRT project is dead. BIRT was
mostly removed from Eclipse 2019-12 leaving just the chartmodel plugins
upon which MoDisco and others depend.
Since 1.5.1M2 will have a significant reduction in dead functionality
wrt UML2, amputating BIRT will also happen in 3 weeks time unless a
comment on [2] makes the case for retention.
Regards
Ed Willink
