Hi Eirikur, nice to meet you with your real name :-)

We are using jBPM 3.3 and don't see that v.4 will be out any time soon so I need to make sure we build (or you as well?) a jpdl extension to oryx that will work on jBPM 3.3 as well...

we aim to supply migration support including a tool for translating jbpm 3 processes to jpdl 4.

jbpm 4 will not be backwards compatible with jbpm 3.  though the basic structure would be the same.  if you have the jpdl 3 plugin, it should not take a big effort to port it to 4.

if you're willing to lead it, we'ld like to host and maintain the oryx extension to import/export oryx to jpdl 4.  we can help with setting up the module in our codebase.

what kind of dependencies are involved in creating an oryx extension ?  is that development maven based ?
