Was curious, I tried previously to compile the community-uml project previously and encountered problems [1].
Not sure if my problem was the java 11 in use in the environment or old code needing updating... Never received any feedback and have not had a chance to look at it since nice but was curious wondering if there was anything special that had to be done to get that to compile?
