Version:           1.1.1 (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs

Currently, the author variable just contains the current user ID.

I don't see where a user is supposed to set this.

In situations in which a diagram is being worked on by several people,
it would be better if every level of the model had an optional author
setting.  If the author of, say, a method, is empty, the author variable
would be that of its class, and ultimately, of the document author.  
Otherwise, it would override the author variable of the containing level.

At the moment it doesn't save anything, an option to set XMI.owner and XMI.contact might be nice.
