[rules-users] Rules storage without Guvnor?

[Horváth Péter Gergely]

Hi,

What do you recommend? :) I think we should go for the latest 6.x series,
but theoretically we could also choose 5.x (we are in an early stage). I
would guess new features / bug fixes will appear in 6.x first...

Cheers,
Peter
