Trevor, or others, some thing I've noticed when attending conferences in the US is that there is a very high concentration on tools (development environments but also CASE tools). Not saying tools are unimportant, but what about the interest in processes("methods") such as ObjectOry ? Is there a real interest in that kind of products / are US companies starting to look at those issues ? /Hans-Erik
