The fate of Saffron (AS3 UML modeling tool)

Posted on October 5, 2008 by Fuad Kamal

We had been waiting with baited breath last year for Saffron to come out…even a beta…and lately I had been wondering what ever happened to it…all links to Saffron come up with at 404…

seems Microsoft got in the way. Ah, nothing like deep pockets…guess we have to stick with Enterprise Architect or build our own tool (hm?!?)

Ooops…strike that…maybe its a rumor

Here’s the developer’s Twitter feed

So…hope we see Saffron someday soon after all!

    I’ve too searched for a solution and instead wrote my own AS3 export for StarUML, a free, open source UML tool (sadly, Win only).

    I’m still excited to see/hear more about Saffron, though.
