The scope of jBPM 3 work is already way beyond the resources we have for it. We should focus on the necessary work to put jBPM 3 in maintenance rather then introducing a new API on it. We said in the meeting in the context of the migration debate that no API will be introduced in jBPM 3. A new API will be introduced in jBPM 4. regards, tom. thomas.diesler(a)jboss.com wrote: > Folks, > > following our team meeting in Antwerp I trimmed down the API+CTS that > I had in the incubator project to the functionality and concepts that > we agreed on. > > http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12945 > > In Antwerp we decided that the threading model that is native to jBPM > (i.e. borrowing the client Thread) should be supported by the API, > which actually makes a mapping to the jBPM3 code base possible. > > How the API+CTS can be integrated in the Maven build is documented here > > http://www.jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-12871 > > the Java Doc is here > > http://jbpm.dyndns.org/jbpm-spec/jbpm-spec-api/apidocs/index.html > > Doing this work for jBPM3 has multiple benefits. > #1 It will be much easier to decide when jBPM3 functional equivalence > is reached > > #2 Projects that require a stable API but also have a dependency on > jBPM3 can start to decouple from jBPM3 implementation detail and > interface with the API.
