The BPMN spec contains the business requirements and the description of the functionality of this construct.
Anurag also explained the functionality in this thread.
The questions we have for the jBPM team are:
-is this construct on the roadmap ? if yes, for which release ?
-if yes, is there a way to track its development ?
-Overall, what would the work consist and how hard is it to implement ?
Please advise.

That's what I mention. it can be easy to implement most of the
times but there are also some complex business use case that can
complicate the generic approaches.
Looking at a concrete use case will help a lot to understand what
do you want to achieve.

*Subject:* Re: [jbpm-dev] Re- IOR gateway
Hi Anurag,
Based on your description I think that I'm understanding what
do you want to do now.
Right now the behaviors implemented in jBPM5 are XOR and AND.
I think what you want to implement is N of M converging
gateway, as it was in Drools Flow? Am I right?
You want to wait 2 of the 3 branches that you have to
propagate the execution?
Cheers

Hi Mauricio,
If an an AND converging gateway has n incoming branches, it
expects that all incoming have been triggered and when it is
so - it calls triggerCompleted (so that the rest of the
process can continue)
In case of OR converging, lets assume a process
branch1
/ \
OR (diverging) - branch 2 - OR (converging)
\ /
branch 3
now any of branches may be triggered, OR converging has to
wait for all branches that were actually triggered (say
branch1 and branch 3). But the problem is it does not know
which branches were triggered (for AND it was easier - just
wait for all branches to be triggered). here in case of OR -
we don't know to continue to wait for branch 2 or not

Hi Antoine,
So do you want to implement and OR or and AND converging
gateway, by the description it looks like and AND converging
gateway. Is there any differences with the AND converging
gateway that is currently implemented in jBPM5?
Cheers

Hi guys.. that's the AND Converging gateway right?
The AND waits for all the branches that are converging before
propagate.
If that's not what you are looking for it should be very easy
to implement.. and probably you can model that with the
complex converge gateway.
Cheers.

Hi Kris,
How are you
Recently one of our requirements came up for converging
IOR gateway, this is the gateway which according to bpmn
specification syncs up on all upstream tokens and
propagates token when no upstream token is left
Currently jbpm does not support this construct, I was
wondering if jbom has this in roadmap and if you can give
some advice on difficulty and state of implementation
Regards,
Anurag
