This artical is grossly wrong. OMT and Booch are methods for designing OO classes, as well as language to describe the classes. UML is *not* a methodology. It only specifies the language to describe classes (hence the name Unified Modeling *Language*).

Completely agree. Most of this stuff belongs in this article: Object-oriented modeling not here. UML is an object modeling language. The various methods described here (in the current article, if I have time I'm going to edit it) are modeling methods not languages. MadScientistX11 (talk) 19:13, 13 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I rewrote the article.

As it was before there was no clear distinction between a modeling language and a methodology. The graphic that was here also contributed to that, it was one of my pet peeves with Powerpoint slideware, inconsistent notation, it had boxes that looked the same but in some cases refered to a modeling language (UML) and in other cases a method (RUP). I thought the picture just contributed to the confusion but I found two other ones that I used instead. MadScientistX11 (talk) 14:37, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
