To fully support BPEL you'd need to also consider <flow>+<links> constructs with can express directed acyclic graphs. This is most likely a bit tricky to layout as it mixes blocks and graphs. But it would be awesome to have such a view it in Ode. In case you need a GSOC mentor, don't hesitate to ask. Best, Tammo -- Tammo van Lessen - http://www.taval.de
