The Datastore (Yourdon) DFD shape (XML/SVG)

The DFD symbols available in Dia do not include the Yourdon (I think) symbol for Data Stores.  This is a pathetically easy symbol but nevertheless important for people who use that notation: http://www.thefullwiki.org/Data_Flow_Diagram#wikipedia_Developing_a_data_flow_diagram Attached is the XML file to add that symbol into Dia.  Perhaps the programmers will consider committing it to the repo?

Thanks

This is true. I was going to report it. The problem has been known for years ( http://old.nabble.com/Data-flow-diagrams-(DFD)-td6518915.html ). I would like to see that shape included in the very close future too. I needed it many times and always had to find poor alternatives. Thanks!
