Visio is a very popular E/R diagramming tool, and this blog by Mark McLaren shows how easy it was to plug Apache Derby in as an ODBC data source.
By the way, if anyone is inspired to build an open source ODBC driver for Apache Derby, that would be way cool. Right now the only way to do ODBC for Apache Derby is with the free but closed-source driver from IBM...
