Hi all,

as far as I remember, both eclipse and web based bpmn 2 editors for
Activiti include specific content for the Bpmn engine to work.

If we are to use bpmn2-modeler we willhave to provide some profile to use
specific attributes or supported activiti BPMN2. Unless Activiti provides
this profile already.



Thanks,
Cyril
