Dear all,

The Open Group Enterprise Architecture Practitioners Conference Paris 
2007 this week has a session on Architecting to the Edge with a 1/2 day 
allocated to AADL (http://www.opengroup.org/paris2007/edge.html).

TOPCASED has moved its latest milestone release 1.0.0M3 to Eclipse3.3 
(Eclipse milestone release).  The next release of OSATE will have been 
validated under Eclipse 3.3(Milestone release X) and EMF 2.3(Milestone 
release X).

The development of OSATE is being moved to the GForge server of 
TOPCASED, with the SEI CVS server for OSATE acting as mirror. If you 
have been using the SEI CVS server to pull OSATE sources read-only, you 
can continue to do so or switch to GForge.  If you want to contribute to 
the development of OSATE you will have to use the GForge server. Please 
let Lutz Wrage (lwrage at sei.cmu.edu) know if you are interested in 
switching to GForge such that we can provide you with details.

There will be the Second IEEE-SEE International Workshop UML&AADL 2007 
(http://aadl.enst.fr/UMLandAADL2007.html)
in conjunction with the 12th IEEE International Conference on 
Engineering Complex Computer Systems ICECCS07 
(https://www.cs.auckland.ac.nz/iceccs07/index.php/ICECCS07).

The ARTIST2 Network of Excellence is organizing a workshop on Integrated 
Modular Avionics.

We had a successful AADL standards meeting last week.  AADL V2 
enhancements are advancing and a draft of the revised standard will be 
available for review shortly.  Two other SAE standards committees (AS-1 
Weapons Plug'n'Play; AS-4 Unmanned Systems) are piloting the use of AADL 
to specify their standard.
