Ban UML


I hate UML and all it stands for. When doing anything with computers, as with maths or anything else that actually has a point, there is a set right and wrong way of doing something. But not with UML. Oh no, there are several ways of drawing a UML class diagram. I hope that by getting enough signatures on this petition, we can persuade the inventors of UML to redesign it so that there is a FIXED CORRECT WAY of creating a UML class diagram instead of (what I have found so far) 23 DIFFERENT \'CORRECT\' METHODS EACH OF WHICH PROVES THE OTHER TO BE INCORRECT. I have spent the last week trying to learn UML but I have yet to master its illogical, time consuming backwards design. If the UML people would put a tutorial online saying the exact right way to draw a UML class diagram, I will be happy. Currently I have read 3 books, 34 different online tutorials and degree level university guideline notes. Yes. 63 pages worth - nothing. This petition holds no purpose other than to fulfill my person satisfaction. By signing this petition hopefully we can establish a reasonably correct way of designing a class diagram that is recognised as being correct by all third parties. Thankyou for your time.
