Page "Unified Modeling Language" Paragraph 17

Under the technical leadership of the Three Amigos, an international consortium called the UML Partners was organized in 1996 to complete the Unified Modeling Language ( UML ) specification, and propose it as a response to the OMG RFP.

The UML Partners ' UML 1. 0 specification draft was proposed to the OMG in January 1997.

During the same month the UML Partners formed a Semantics Task Force, chaired by Cris Kobryn and administered by Ed Eykholt, to finalize the semantics of the specification and integrate it with other standardization efforts.

The result of this work, UML 1. 1, was submitted to the OMG in August 1997 and adopted by the OMG in November 1997.
