CASE Communique, the international organisation of software engineering vendors and users, expects to put CASE tool messaging operation specifications in the public domain by July. The operation specifications include analysis and design, database and proprietart languages, configuration management, metrics and test, project management, external interfaces, construction-reverse and re-engineering, common operations, documentation-editors and user interface management systems. The specifications are due out on June 1. Members will vote to determine which move from a proposed to a draft state. They will then be tested by both members and non-members in real application environments.
