I suppose you are seeing the Email and Log work item again but not your own?
That's basically the only name you shouldn't be using ;) The reason is
that drools-core already contains a WorkDefinitions.conf file which is
used by default and contains the Email and log work items (and has
precendence over the user-specified one in the IDE).

PS: using a "resources" source folder instead of "src/main/resources"
should also work (as long as it's a Java source folder, not just a
regular folder in the project).
Quoting bbking <badillo.brian(a)gmail.com>:
As followup, I should note that when trying to change the
MyDefinitions.conf
name to WorkDefinitions.conf (and reflecting the change in the
drools.rulebase.conf file), the work item disappears.
Does anyone know why this may be happening?
