Hi Nuno,
thanks for the examples. I think it makes things clearer.
What I am not sure about is - did you say that the same class can be
of different "colors" in the same system? How would you cope with
that if you followed the recommendations and model using colored
sticky-notes? :-)
I can understand that what is for one MI a "Place" may be a "Thing"
for other MI (still keeping the green color though) but it is hard
for me to see the same class acting as a Place and MI for instance.
Thanks again anyway.
Regards
Michal
