   As far as I can tell you have full permissions for the Task Manager.

   My only comment for the moment is that I don't think defining the API is
much of an issue because we're using the IDL defined by the UML spec 
(well there is the question of how to store presentation data).

   In fact if I'm not mistaken the code Chris has uploaded already 
implements much of that API.  So it seems to me that's what's needed is 
for somebody to start writing a prototype client that uses the 
repository at least for storing model data.  This will hopefully lead to 
a better understanding of how the client and library interact and what 
is needed for the presentation data.

   I would think that the fastest approach would be to reuse code or at 
least architecture from some existing GPLed diagram editor (for example 
dia (but its in C/GTK) or kivio).
