I first heard about this from my brother who is a developer for Lockheed Martin. I think it would be a great way of programming. I would much rather read/alter someone's UML than to decipher their code to make changes. I wish I had a class on this. Jimmy,

Great Post. I first heard about this from my brother who is a developer for Lockheed Martin. I think it would be a great way of programming. I would much rather read/alter someone’s UML than to decipher their code to make changes. I wish I had a class on this.

In fact, I think one of the major innovations of the OlivaNova Model Execution environment is its ability to model UI patterns. We'll talk more about this in class, so stay tuned. BTW, you wrote a good analysis of the issues of modeling vs. programming.

Dr. Liddle's project sounds a lot like what TenFold has been after all these years. Did you know that Jamis worked in BYU OIT before he went to work full-time for 37Signals? Adam Hey Jimmy,
Good post. Dr. Liddle’s project sounds a lot like what TenFold has been after all these years.

Did you know that Jamis worked in BYU OIT before he went to work full-time for 37Signals?
