All,
As you will be aware, 5th November 2019 saw the release of the Archimate 3.1 Standard. There are a couple of relationship changes and the introduction of a new element in the Strategy Layer -the View Point. All well and good. Bearing in mind that most of the MDG plugins are bundled into the same installer now, I have a couple of questions:
- Why is the new Archimate plugin not available yet for EA? It has been HOURS for crying out loud

- What is the process for getting it in the future - a download of the plugin to replace what is already in the install path, a full download of a new EA version/release, etc?
- Who is responsible for creating the new version of this or any other addin that is shipped with the install binaries?
Of course I realise that this will take some time to address - there are other things happening, the correct team/supplier has to be engaged, do the work, deliver, pass QA, be scheduled for integration, etc etc. Is there a commonly deployed pattern to deal with this sort of activity, as I am sure it comes up a fair amount, with the number of standards that EA conforms or complies with?
p.s. If it does require a new EA release, please, please, please try to resist the attraction of changing the menus again! Nothing more embarrassing when trying to extol the virtues of the application to new users in a new environment when I cant find the commands because it is a newer or older installation. You guys are crazy
