Issue 6606: No way to represent "uninterpreted" actions (uml2-superstructure-ftf)
Source: France Telecom R&D (Mr. Mariano Belaunde, mariano.belaunde(at)orange.com)
Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: Within a state machine we would like refer to an action defined rather "informally" using natural language. 
Among the list of actions metaclasses, we did not see any one that could be used to map our "informal" 
action. 
Suggestion for resolution: Add a UninterpretedAction metaclass in the metamodel.

Actions taken:
November 12, 2003: received issue
March 9, 2005: closed issue
Discussion: 
In UML 2, uninterpreted actions in state machines are modeled as activities with no
nodes. Activity has attributes for uninterpreted strings. Also see issue 6094.
Disposition: Closed, no change

Juergen, 

Could you please add the following 4 issues for consideration to  the UML2 superstructure FTF? 
Thanks in advance,

In UML 2, uninterpreted actions are modeled as activities with no nodes.
Activity has attributes for uninterpreted strings.  Also see issue 6094.
