Are there any (port 80) mirrors from where I can download M1? The subversion repository at http://labs.jboss.com (http://65.244.175.212:8080/portal/jbossrules/subversion.html) is inaccessible through our company firewalls (well, I get HTTP500 in reply).

Sorry you Q was about ruleflow in general, not just general releases. Yes RuleFlow is in there and Kris has already done some basic tooling. We are currently trying to decide whether we have the ruleflow as xml or something like drl. As you do ruleflows with tooling we are tempted to keep it xml.
