Summary:

Document: UML Profile and Interchange Models for EAI 
Section: 6.3.10.2.1 (EAIMessageFlow) 

Description: 
The second sentence of Section 6.3.10.2.1 is "Each of its 'nodes' (see Figure 6-2) must be one of the operator classes (EAIPrimitiveOperator or EAICompoundOperator), and its connections must be EAILinks." This statement is a constraint. It is also incorrect, since an EAIMessageFlow can also contain EAISources and EAISinks.

Recommendation: 
Move this statement under a Constraints heading for EAIMessageFlow, adding EAISource and EAISink to the allowable kinds of nodes for an EAIMessageFlow.
