Kevin,

I'm not sure what you are asking for. Are you asking for what others' data
models/class diagrams/etc look like?

Besides way expensive tools like Rational or PowerDesigner (I think
PowerDesigner runs to 10K if you get the full suite, 3K for just the
"DataArchitect" part), I have found ArgoUML (open source) which can do UML.
There is also a plugin for Eclipse called Omondo which can do UML, too.
There is also a more slicked-up commercial product that is based on ArgoUML,
but I can't remember the name right now.

As for the data modeling, if anyone has found something open source/free
that has even 1/10th the capability of PowerDesigner or ERWin or Oracle
Designer, I'd like to hear about it...
