Michael: fair enough, I phrased the question badly. I guess I should have
asked "Does anyone know of any attempts to facilitate UML 2 for Dia (either
directly via Dia shapes or indirectly via something like ArgoUML and
conversion scripts)?"

Alejandro: a fair question. Unfortunately this was a bit of a
'fire-and-forget' post, as the UML modelling work I did that brought up
some apparent shortcomings was quite a long time ago. I'm in the middle of
some other work and don't have time to go back over it (I'm not even sure
which particular diagram types I had frustrations with), but I appreciate
that I probably can't expect too much help without more details!

I may also not have 'thought laterally' enough in terms of adapting
existing shapes for my needs.

If/when I have time, I'll go back through everything and post again. Out of
interest, what are the normal set of diagram types you use and where (if at
all) do you need to use shapes outside the UML set? (I know that, in
principle in UML 2, these are not rigid divisions...)

Regards,
Stuart
