[Scribus] A good UML tool!

[Christophe Chailloleau-Leclerc]

Asif,

others were right, I know what UML is, and know a few tools, but
you're speaking of one that seems very interesting, without naming it
or giving an URL.
So we can't check if it's as interesting as you claim.
I would be very interested in this !

Regards,

Christophe
