have the automatically-defined "drools"  variable. It implements the 
KnowledgeHelper interface. Take a look at this interface as it can provide you 
a lot of runtime information. To get the rule name:
> drools.getRule().getName();    Also, if you develops something that is 
generic and want to contribute back to the community, it would be great. Maybe 
others can also help you out.    About your second question: we don't have 
anything out of the box yet. Although, Mark has blogged about exposing rules as 
a web-service and we are looking into implementing something like that in the 
drools-brms.

Hi Edison,
 thanks for that. While exposing it as a web service is one thing, we will 
still need it running on an independent Daemon thread (thats another thing). If 
we make any head way in this area will try and update you. BTW whats your 
process of integration?

Can you have a document or a page on your Wiki for this so we understand the 
quality requirements clarly to give back something later. I dont suppose 
sending a zip file full of code does it :o) haha


thanks,
Arjun
