[jbpm-dev] What's going on exactly

[Bernd Rücker]

Hi all!



I am really confused by now what is going on in the jBPM project and JBoss
BPM project. Could somebody please clarify:

-          Is JBoss BPM now a different project than jBPM? Or is it one?

-          Where is the exact goal of the BPM?

-          Where does this BPM-API should lead to?

-          The BPM documentation uses some XML notation. Which language is
that?

-          How does PVM / jBPM 4 relate to the “JBoss BPM”?

-          What products will be available? PVM, jBPM jPDL 3, jBPM jPDL 4?
What’s with BPEL?

-          What effort is going to on to integrate BPMN?

-          Who is project lead of what?



And:

-          When is the mailinglist used, when the forum?



Sorry, but I am really confused. I thought there was a clear vision in the
jBPM project (PVM / jBPM jPDL 4 as “reference implementation”), but now
there are a lot of other things, like this “BPM product”. What is exactly
going on here?



Sorry for asking that “silly” questions, I have some idea in my mind about
how everything goes on, but am not sure if that picture reflects reality
;-)


And as long I don’t have a clear picture is hard for me to contribute
ideas or code and to continue giving presentations on jBPM on conferences
(since normally I try to know what I am talking about). Also it will be an
interesting information for delivering the RedHat jBPM trainings
.



Thanks for your answers

Bernd
