A successful Archi and ArchiMate Workshop in King’s College, London organised by Simon Waddington. Another presentation from the dynamic duo, yours truly and Willidata (the intelligent one). On Saturday morning, breakfast alfresco in the corner cafe of Russell Square Gardens.
Modelling Bash Outcomes
Willidata has summarised the outcomes of the Coventry Modelling Bash here.
Coventry Modelling Bash and King Lear
The ArchiMate and EA Modelling Bash in Coventry University on Monday and Tuesday. Lots of Archi Feature Requests, lots of nice people. Then a drive home to watch Derek Jacobi in King Lear. Powerful stuff. “Nothing will come of nothing”. Lear loses all his worldly possessions, his clothes, his sanity, his retinue, everything. He is […]
Derived Relations and Dijkstra
Looking to see if Dijkstra’s algorithm can be used to calculate Derived Relations in Archi. As it is implemented now, it is possible to take a long time to calculate all possible paths between node BA1 and node BA2. Turns out I couldn’t do it. It seems that you really do have to traverse all […]
Git
Did I mention that Git rocks? I’ve been a stick-in-the-mud for CVS since 2003 mainly because I’ve been a single developer and haven’t had to do any branching and merging. Subversion left me cold.

SourceForge, CVS, Git & Archi version 1.6
SourceForge was attacked and many of its services were taken down around January 27th – see here. I’d just committed Archi 1.6.0 beta 2 to CVS just before the attack. And today, the CVS services are still down. So, since then I’ve spent some time noodling, and fixing some stuff, and waiting and waiting, and […]
Eclipse Sketch
Regarding the Sketch View in Archi, how about this: More at http://www.eclipse.org/sketch/
Finished a coding sprint
Finished a long and tiring coding sprint that started around December 11th when I worked on importing BiZZdesign models into Archi, through a Format Painter, other features and mucho refactoring, the nested relations problem and then re-doing the help files. Today is the first real day of rest since then. I worked through Christmas and […]
Merry Christmas!
