What (some) programmers offer to do for just 5$

Fiverr is the place for people to share things they're willing to do for $5.
If you go to the programming category you can see the list of programming tasks people are willing to do just for 5$. I think we should not sell so cheap! (and to the people ordering these services, do not complain about the quality of the service, for that price I would not expect too much testing). IMHO, some programmers should take some basic finance courses.

From their web page:
MMA is a support network to help those unfortunate people who are seriously addicted to meta-modelling. You should contact us if you or someone you know suffers from any of the following symptoms. We are here to help. Symptoms:

Call for Action: Setting UML Free- the WebUML initiative

The WebUML initiative wants to set UML free , that is, to release it from the desktop and bring it to the world wide web, where online technologies enable a more social way of modelling.

The claim that it is very difficult to achieve some minimal degree of distributed collaborative modeling is true. No need to repeat now the usual complaints about the XMI interchange format .

Collection of metamodel samples

I complained in a previous post about the lack of success of model repositories and the inconveniences this caused to all researchers on MDD willing to test their techniques on a representative sample of models (of different domain, sizes, complexity and so on).
