For example there is an actor named 18th Space Control Squadron and there is a class named 18th Space Control Squadron (this may be a Block in the original model). The class seems to exist solely to be a place to capture the description of the stakeholder in a note property. I do not like the notion of two elements with the same name. If the class exists simply to capture the description why can't we do this as part of the actor properties?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>MagicDraw proprietary tables have been used to map stakeholders to their concerns. It does not look like the concerns are model elements, rather they are just text in a table. A proper model (in my opinion) would have the concerns captured as model elements and a relationship between the concerns and the appropriate stakeholder. Modeling tools could then choose to present this information as a diagram, a matrix or a table, or anything else that might be appropriate.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>J.D.
