MARTE — Section Allocation: Wrong direction of the allocation

Wrong direction of the allocation: The MARTE allocation mechanism is directly inspired from SysML. SysML has chosen a convention contrary to UML and draws the arrow from the suppliers (usually a target) to the clients (usually a source). So as to be compatible MARTE has followed SysML with that convention. Now, the SysML RTF is considering that this triggers too many problems with tool vendors and thus considers using the same convention than UML. An alignment between SysML and MARTE is required as much as possible and MARTE FTF should then think through this issue and adopt the same convention than UML.

The only text that was wrong has been removed in the resolution for issue 11770. The new text in this resolution assumed that sources are referred as clients and targets are referred as suppliers.
This resolution has no impact on any other section since the wrong "direction" was only in the vocabulary used (clients vs. suppliers) and the graphical notation was already correct.
