I found "super-state" to be a poor term initially, as Ronald described.
Using 'scope' opens up a myriad of issues in my mind, since really everything has
a scope. I would tend to start looking for how the same scope info was being applied in
the data model to all levels of the process hierarchy.
"Group" would be confusing to me as well (but only because I already use that
term in all my assignment handler configurations)--never the less, I think Ronald is
right--and just because a particular language uses a term doesn't mean jpdl/jbpm has
to, or should, avoid it. If it's the right word, then it's the right word.
In the end, I tend to go with naming things what they are, even if it's a little
inconvenient initially--everyone seems to be happier in the long term. I would love to be
able to use the terms 'wait' and 'group' for 'state' and
'super-state'.
