As a part of improving my UML diagrams and moving towards UML 2.x I’m evaluating free community editors and found the one that seems to be good: Visual Paradigm for UML 6.0 Community Edition.
Here are some diagram screenshots:

If you don’t know you can be certified in UML 2:

In 2003 I was one of beta-testers of UML Fundamentals exam and passed it. I guess from my certificate number (B100031) I was the 31st person who passed the exam, the highest bit offset in a double word. Now I’m aiming to be certified in the next Intermediate level. This exam is a pure UML language exam. It is not about applying UML in your domain. The only one book for this certification is this and which I found very good for exam preparation:

Visual Paradigm for UML 6.0 Community Edition has a very bad (IMHO) limitation -> you can have only one diagram of each type in a project. I.e. you cannot have two sequence diagrams. I think Visual Paradigm for UML becomes more or less usable only from Modeller edition.

Yes, this is the limitation for designing or reverse engineering projects. However I currently use UML only for illustration purposes. So it should be fine if I create one project per post. I remember that I used Poseidon for UML (Free Community Edition) almost 4 years ago and I don’t recall any such limitations there.
Thanks,
Dmitry
