I would like to contribute to the dia project by adding data
modeling
support with an 'export to SQL' option. I may even build in the
ability
to go straight to the SQL server to create tables.
Are you thinking of something like the Toolkit for Conceptual Modeling?
As I don't have a copy of visio, no visio files, and there are no public
specs for the file format (I hear the format is intentionally obfuscated
as well), I probably won't work on this.
However, I don't want to stop others working on this. If you do take on
this project, there is a few

Well, something like that. There is "DiaCanvas", which is just the

Perhaps dia should also be made networkable, so multiple people can work
on the same diagram with instant updating. In combination with
mind-mapping and UML, this would make dia a real collabrative
brainstorming tool.

I see it as sort of fixed. After one clicks fit-to-page it shows the
