**Dia**

Yes Dia seems promising (at first glance). But I have there some little 
but annoying troubles from the start.
For example, I can not resize elements at all, though they have proper 
markers.
Word wrapping in the graphical elements (for example in class nodes) 
doesn't work for me (or I am just too stupid to figure out how to turn 
it on), so boxes with long names looks pretty ugly in result.

**Graphviz**

Well, actually I've used graphviz and dot previously (though it's been a 
while). But before you've mentioned it I had no thought to do with it 
something UMLish.
Now I see that it is a really good idea. I should try it. Thanks!
