> PROBLEM. Due to a misreading of the BPEL 2.0 specification text, the <repeatUntil> activity executed the contained activity as long as the condition evaluates to true. The described behavior corresponds to the description of the <while> activity. In the case of <repeatUntil>, the contained activity is to be executed until the condition becomes true. In other words, <repeatUntil> loops as long as the condition evaluates to *false*!
> PROPOSAL. Currently <repeatUntil> is implemented as a special case in the While class. The idea is to introduce a new RepeatUntil class that focuses on the requirements of <repeatUntil> element, apart from <while>. Of course, the new design should strive for reuse.
