[aadl]: new release of Topcased/Osate

[Peter Feiler]

Dear all,

The official Eclipse 3.3 release is out. Following suit TOPCASED has 
posted the official release 1.0.0 of Topcased.
We have released OSATE 1.5.1 to go along with those releases.  You can 
download OSATE/Topcased from www.aadl.info or

from AADL Editor : http://gforge.enseeiht.fr/frs/?group_id=32. OSATE v1.5.1 feature is now included in the archive file.


Also we have a standalone version of the AADL compiler.  If you are 
interested in exercising this prototype implementation please contact 
Dio at dionisio at sei.cmu.edu.  He can also provide some information about 
how to create a stand-alone (headless) analysis plug-in (see also the 
public AADL Wiki at 
http://la.sei.cmu.edu/aadl-wiki/index.php/Creating_Headless_%28Command_Line%29_Plugins).
 
The MARTE draft has been voted for adoption and is now going into a 
12-18 months finalization phase.  MARTE has incorporated AADL concepts 
and the document include a section on a first mapping of AADL as 
language into the concepts of the MARTE meta model.
