in reply to tedia2sql - Dia ERD (UML class) diagrams to DDL (SQL) - opinions and options

Update December 2008:

It seems the original maintainer of the project, Tim Ellis, has stepped down.

Fortunately, Mike Ginou, has (during fall of 2008) stepped up and applied a number of patches. However, he writes he's sadly, not able to put any time towards tedia2sql. Nevertheless, he has applied a number of patches to the cvs repository and been active on the mailing list (web archive) since then:

$ cvs log tedia2sql | grep '2008' -B1 revision 1.73 date: 2008/11/27 03:01:59; author: mginou; state: Exp; lines: +2 -2 -- revision 1.72 date: 2008/11/26 11:49:45; author: mginou; state: Exp; lines: +2 -2 -- revision 1.71 date: 2008/11/26 11:47:25; author: mginou; state: Exp; lines: +17 - +30 -- revision 1.70 date: 2008/11/26 11:39:36; author: mginou; state: Exp; lines: +13 - +1 -- revision 1.69 date: 2008/11/26 03:35:58; author: mginou; state: Exp; lines: +3 -0
Citing this thread:
Open Source projects never die - they just sleep until a new maintainer pops up :-)
So: If anyone feels like contributing to this (perl) project, or even make it into a CPAN module (it is GNU GPL, after all :), this is the time.
cvs -d :pserver:guest@cvs.tigris.org:/cvs checkout tedia2sql
Update Wed Dec 10 12:17:13 CET 2008 : Added links and cvs log and checkout.
