FMC stencils for Dia

A friend and I are coding FMC stencils for Dia, which is Gnome's modeling tool to fight Visio. Looks pretty promising so far, and hopefully we'll get them finished in a month or so. Along with the actual stencils, we are producing a tad of documentation. It'll be made public somewhere, and if it is, I'll post a link here.

Is there anything available yet?

Anything, yes, but neither useful nor complete. Agents in their differing flavors are there, and so are storages, but we're still working on the channels and other stuff. When the stencils are done, we'll likely make a patch for the DIA trunk.

I am really looking forward to you being ready. Booting up Windows with VirtualBox everytime I need a FMC Diagram is annoying.

whats the current status?
this stencil set is really missing!

I'd say, 90% done. All the shapes (of block diagrams) are there. Unfortunately, atm there is no coding being done, so I don't know when the stencils will be finished or if at all.
