I'm creating some UML stencils for Kivio, and currently have Class Diagram and 
Activity Diagram collections [mostly] done. I've encountered some weird 
behavior with <KivioShape type="TextBox"> elements. If I place more than one 
on a stencil then they both display the same text.

Is Kivio being actively developed? Is there CVS access to the source so I can 
work on it? The app has lots of potential, but lots of problems too. Here's a 
list of some things that I'd like to work on (not necessarily in any 
particular order):

1. Fix the connector decorations so they work.
2. Add smart connectors - both square corner and curved.
3. Add lots of stencils:
	a. UML stencils (already started doing this)
	b. Network diagramming stencils
	c. Electrical engineering stencils
	d. Office space stencils
	e. Org chart stencils
4. Documentation:
	a. How to create stencils (perhaps create a stencil-building tool).
	b. Create the Kivio manual that's eluded to on the Help button.
5. Add undo capability.
6. Add scripting capability so Kivio could be extended to, say, automatically 
generate a diagram of your network or build an object-hierarcy diagram from 
your C++ source code. 
7. Fix general bugs.

Regards,
Eric
