I'm not at all sure that XMI is capable of representing _all_ of an
Ada program without extensions. And you would certainly have to make
some mapping decisions.

In the reverse direction, given a UML model, are you going to map a
Class to a package? to a tagged type? Either would be valid ... (and
would have its own difficulties).
