Umbrello's development depends very little on that of its competitors. The programme is not yet at a stage where it contains many unique features, rather the concentration has been on getting a powerful UML modelling programme while retaining its friendly user interface. The possibility of being inspired but then restricted by software patents is another reason why I have tended to pay little attention to other UML programmes. Umbrello is well positioned as a unique programme which serves a market that was previously unfulfilled.
