So create a DSLs that encompass the shared bits and reuse them in your drl. It would be nice to see rule extensions and rule "mixins" for code reuse. But unless it comes from the community its not going to happen any time soon. I'd be happy to chat to anyone on irc on how to do these things, if someone has the time and wants to give it a go.

Hi Everybody, The latest BRMS needs Java 5 to run. My client applications are still on Java 1.4 and so the Rule Agent would run under Java 1.4 Has anybody seen any issues having the Rule Agent (using java 1.4) loading the pkgs created by BRMS running under (java 5)?
