What is expected in jbpm-3.3.0.GA targetted for Nov 1st ?  How much will the new 
console differ in functionality from the JSF based console ?

Which console will be shipped in jbpm-3.3.0.GA both or only the new one ?

Do you anticipate to maintain backend pluggability for 3 and 4 ?  Or will the jBPM 4 
console be a fork ?

I thought it would be easier to put the JSF console together jBPM 3 in maintenance 
after 3.3.0.GA.  But that's your call.  If you think you can get something in jBPM 3 
which is roughly the same functionality and stability, then of course from a 
supportability point of view that is a good improvement.
