Rotten Fruit
So, I got through a good chunk of design in Umbrello, only to realize that it doesn't have any concept of a const member function (i.e., a "query" stereotype method). I'm a very const-aware person, and the lack of this feature makes the whole tool utterly worthless to me. What's even more aggravating is that I can't open the XMI file in ArgoUML. So much for interoperability… I'm currently hand-copying the information over to ArgoUML (which does handle the query stereotype), and I'll post that XMI file when I've finished. If you haven't noticed, I'm keeping the design link on the "links" list; the last updated time will help you figure out if you have the newest version or not.
If you have comments or wishes about Umbrello, please do file a report at bugs.kde.org - that's the only way we (the Umbrello developers) will be able to know about it.
For your current gripe, I have already done so, see http://bugs.kde.org/116242

Note: I have been told by someone who recently downloaded the SWF specification that Macromedia has added a restrictive license to the end of the document. Because of this, newcomers will not be able to get a copy of the spec and still be able to contribute to GPLFlash's development. Since other developers (such as myself) already have access to the specification without the license, this should not pose a major problem in the short term. Please bear with us, and do not seek out or use this specification in conjunction with the GPLFlash project.
