I wasn't sure, as i haven't read the code yet. Are you saying the patch will
detect which version of the XML it is, and upgrade on the fly?<br>

My assumption was that it was just some code to migrate from 4 to 5, but
someone still needs to execute that, so it seemed the easiest route was to do
this via an eclipse option for now - as hooking into packagebuilder with auto
detection was more work and needed more testing, but if you have done this
already....<br>

if we can work this into the package reader and some how have it detect whether

<p class=MsoNormal>No they are not compatible, 5.0 has a new ePDL XML language
that is human writable. I suggest that somone in the community starts looking
into an XSLT to translate them.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I wanted to know if RuleFlows made using the Eclipse 4.0.7
RuleFlow Builder will work with 5.0.0. When, I try to upload a 4.0.7 ruleflow
into Guvnor, I get a NullPointerException and before that the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Cannot find the declaration of element
'org.drools.ruleflow.core.impl.RuleFlowProcessImpl'.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I checked the 5.0.0M1 jars for drools-core, and this class
seems to have been removed from there. Also, after installing the 5.0.0 plug-in
into Eclipse, my rule-flow nodes have all gone. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Also, this may be a minor bug but it says(both in the docs
and the BRMS Guvnor M1 Release):<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>“<i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Ruleflows

editor. Upload </span></i><b><i><u><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:
