I've belatedly seen the proposals for jBPM5 and wonder what the outcome
on the discussion around task management being a separate project is?
In the past I've posted on the use of the various iCalendar standards
for Human Task interaction and built an iCalendar / CalDav adapter
called TaskCal for jBPM 3 and am slowly porting it to jBPM 4.

There was some interest in incorporating these features in to jBPM and
therefore with the advent of jBPM5 and the proposed architecture I would
like to see if there is still interest. I see it rather as a pluggable
interface for a standard Task Management service. As the WS and
iCalendar communities are now getting together this may provide better
future integration opportunities if we can get the semantics aligned.
I also see that some Drools integration work has been done with iCalendar.
