I've spent many hours reading lots of posts in this forum with the same question: jbpm console sources.
I wonder why it is so difficult to get a simple, direct and clear answer...the replys are always "in svn", "in cvs", "already answered". Maybe i'm completely insane, but could it be that if so many people ask for it maybe it isn't so easy or so clear. Can't you think that maybe the problem is the information and the instructions and not the people?maybe it's not enough for many people that needs more complete information.
On the other hand, it's not necessary to be so...offensive?nobody knows everything. It's possible, maybe, that i'm quite expert on java ee, struts, jsf, hibernate, ibatis, and much more and don't know anything about ant or maven. It's possible, isn't it? Maybe, in my team, that's somebody else work...maybe...maybe i have no idea of how to make that simple build, but i'm able to use and modify the console...maybe. Anyway, what if i don't know anything about development or programming?i don't have the right to test it and learn? is it something like "if you don't know how to do that, you don't deserve it?". I can be wrong, but i think that this is not de right aproach for an open source community. In my opinion, of course.
Ending, i'm member of many forums. I think that a forum is a very useful tool for a community. A place to express, to share, to learn, to teach, to grow. Some people in this forum could be a little kinder. If it is so easy to build it, instead of laughing at me, you could share that knowledge and give a set of a-b-c steps, for dummies (like me) and probably people will stop asking always the same question.

Sorry for writting so much.
