Re: [uiml] Tentative Schedule for Completing the Working Draft
Dear Jean, all,

 

Thanks already, although the DTD at the end of the 
document is still the old (3.2?) version of UIML. I first

have to extract the 4.0 DTD from the contents of 
the specification. I will notify you, when this is ready that

you can run this through your tool once 
again.

 

Thanks,

Robbie.

Dear  All, dear Robbie,

  
 

  
Please find enclosed the metamodel in the IBM Software 
  Modeler environment as a class diagram. The PDF file contains the image. This 
  has been done according to the final DTD found at the end of the UIML 
  document.

  
 

  
All the best,

  
Jean

Hi all,

    
 

    
I seem to remember that the Generation of the 
    UIML4.0 DTD was assigned to me some time ago. So I will

    
try to do it this week and will notify you if I 
    stumble over any inconsistency. BTW.: Does somebody know

    
a good (and free) tool for schema generation 
    out of a DTD? Also tools for creating a meta model would be 
    welcome.

    
 

    
Thanks,

    
Robbie.

Hello all,

      
 

      
Attached is the updated version of the UIML 
      specification.  I have cleaned up as many of the examples, 
      comments, and formatting issues that I can.  There are still a 
      couple of comments present, but they are things I think should be 
      considered by the TC as we review.  As we move forward, please track 
      your changes using MS Word's change tracking feature, so that I'll have a 
      bit easier time merging later on :)

      
 

      
Things still left to do:  Generate the UIML 
      4.0 DTD/Schema and update to the newest OASIS format 
      template.

      
 

      
If possible please review this document by 
      Friday, August 3, 2007.

      
 

      
Thank you!

This is great news! Congratulations to everyone for 
      your hard work. Hopefully once you have the internal review finished 
      you'll submit the work for member review. Let me know if I can be of help 
      in any way!

      
 

      
Regards,

Hello 
        all,

        
 

        
Robbie and I 
        had a excellent discussion last week and would like to propose the 
        following schedule for completing the UIML 4.0 working 
        specification:

        
 

        
July 20: Jim 
        finishes cleaning up the specification and cleans up remaining 
        issues.

        
 

        
July 21 to 
        August 3: Committee review to finalize and remaining issues.  We 
        would especially like for Jean and Heinz-Josef to review the 
        specification in its entirety (if possible).  I think their fresh 
        perspectives would be extremely helpful in finalizing the 
        revision.

        
 

        
August 4 to 
        August 17: Final revisions based on internal review.

        
 

        
At this 
        point we should have completed and polished version of the 
        specification. 

        
 

        
Feedback is 
        welcome!
