Hi Manfred,

I like the idea of an "(Enterprise)Store for Everything" a lot.

Yes, text based process is a non executable process model. A text based
process model may be instantiated as a manual (i.e. non-automated) process.
However, instances of text based process models cannot be created in
workflow systems.

Yes, BPMN models can be both executable or non-executable. WSO2 BPS
(upcoming versions) supports BPMN execution based on Activiti.

Yes. However, BPEL process models are usually used only as executable
models.

We are developing a complete BPM suite by considering key aspects such as
process design, execution, monitoring and analysis. WSO2 BPS is the
execution component of this suite. Components/products for covering other
aspects will be developed based on WSO2 products such as WSO2 ES and WSO2
BAM.
