What is nice is that the cited site is a nice representation of both a specialised use of UML (albeit modified to include E-R data modelling  :P) together with a rudimentary process.
What is nicer is that the site delineates clearly between the notation and the process and is more or less tool independent.
I have only had a brief look at this specialised use of UML to the point that what they have represented looks WORKABLE, , CONCISE and LOGICAL.
We all should keep this site as a reference for that dreaded (IMO) faq on where can I get an example of UML usage from go to  whoa.

Very interesting.....

I wonder what the cost of WebRatio is ??  I suspect that the price tag would be a few thousands, plus an application runtime licence...... Interesting take on code generation etc. Any technology that enables one to focus on design, rather than coding will help me focus on timely solution development.

This WebML is obviously at odds with MDA and its code generation efforts.
