UML22 — Section: 12.3.38

I may be all wet (after all it is a Monday morning and raining here) but I think fig. 265 needs to be redrawn. The notation between the BuildComponent and InstallComponent activites is different than the notation between the InstallComponent and DeliverApplication activities yet the flow is basically the same. To agree with the left side of the flow between BuildComponent and InstallComponent activities, there should be a fork after the InstallComponent activity with an edge going to DeliverApplication activity and an edge going to a decisionNode. The decisionNode should have two edges exiting it. One labeled [more components to be installed] and going back to the InstallComponent activity; a second labeled [no more components to be installed] going to a Flow final node. The edge and the [no more components to be installed] label need to be removed from the edge going from the decisionNode to the DeliverApplication activity. Out of curiosity, why was a fork notation used and not the decisionNode with three control flow edges leading from it?
