Thank for the answer, i am tring to deside if i shuld trigger the
rules with the flows or the flows with the rules, there any adventage
from one or the other? What about guvnor/QA ¿Can I make QA with the
flows?

I Have to eventually run a script (or call a web service), think that
add something like Camel, or ActiveMQ or ServiceMix to handleit is
overkilling since, the rule (or the flow) shuld deside what script
shuld run, the question is ¿shuld run the script from the rule or from
the flows?
Right now i think, that if for example the script is
"send_welcome_email" wich send a welcome email to a new customer, it
shudl run from a rule, since (right now) i don't know how to pass the
customer info to the flow.
