As someone entirely new to the project, I navigated to the root level folder entitled architecture_diagrams.

Filled with excitement I scrolled down to see they're all in some .dia format, which i cannot open on my mac.

Could someone plz quickly confirm what application should be used to open these?

(i tried the top result on google - http://dia-installer.de/ - but couldn't install it on my mac as it requires xquartz. At this point I stopped and thought I'd better ask for help.)

I could then write down the steps I followed, so we could have that in a README.md in that folder.

@gsaslis the application is the one you mentioned found at http://dia-installer.de/ but we plan to move those diagrams to asciidoc dagrams, or plantuml or https://www.websequencediagrams.com/ (which I better prefer).
Also, unfortunately, most of the diagrams are are outdated and they need to get updated to the latest flows.

I see, thanks @gvagenas !

In that case, might I submit a PR with a simple README.md that informs people of the above (and basically tells them not to bother with this for now) ?
