        I wouldn't necessarily say they go hand in hand.  88 is a
client-oriented Java API, whereas 77 is a server-oriented UML model.  88
is used to deploy beans/apps, while 77 is used to manage them after they
are deployed.  88 for JBoss will basically be an implementation for tools
to use (if JBoss was a database, ths would be writing a JDBC driver), so
you also need a compatible tool or it doesn't get you very far.
        All that said, it's still worth implementing for JBoss, since it
would mean that when IDEs and tools start supporting it, they will support
JBoss right along with "those other products".

        The public draft hasn't been released yet, but should be soon.
