[rules-users] Guvnor and Global Functions

[Michael Anstis]

Sure, no problem.

Go to the package you require the globally shared asset to be within.

Select "Create New Asset" and then the option to import from the Global
Area.

5.1.1 is *really* old and you're running a risk of getting next to little
support here, as we concentrate our efforts on the later releases.

5.5.0.Final (or 5.4.0.Final if you don't want the latest and greatest) is
vastly superior and I would recommend you giving it a try.

With kind regards,

Mike
