Anyone using Archimate?
« on: November 19, 2010, 08:17:29 pm »
Is anyone out there using Sparx ArchiMate? (Other than you, Adrian...)

Comparing the ArchiMate meta model in the ArchiMate Specification document to the ArchiMate meta model in Sparx - the Sparx meta model is quite ... different.

Who created the Sparx ArchiMate profile / plug-in / meta model? Someone at Sparx - or a third party? Is it possible to ask questions of the creator regarding any further enhancement of the ArchiMate meta model / profile in Sparx?

The Relationships don't seem to enforce any of the rules in the ArchiMate Specification.

Dead? Buried? No interest?

Nope, not using it, and I hope I'll never have to.
I'm not a big fan of Archimate.

It's probably about time we produced an upgrade - I believe the official spec has gone to 1.0 since we released the technology so there are changes to be made. Please can you let Sparx Support know what you believe needs fixing and that will start the ball rolling. Thanks.
