Subject: [ruby-talk:28316] Re: Rendering UML diagrams?

Well, it's not XMI or XML, but there is a quite nice modelling tool:

http://www.cs.utwente.nl/~tcm

It's file format is quite well documented.  One of the best I've seen of
the "free" UML/Diagramming tools.

Dia stores its drawings in compressed XML, but I'm not impressed with 
the UML support for DIA.  It just isn't there enough to really be
useable IMHO.
