Francesco Chicchiriccò commented on SYNCOPE-439:
------------------------------------------------

Activiti Modeler is based on the Open Source version of [KIS 
BPM|http://kisbpm.com/] - hence is released under Apache License 2.0 (being 
part of Activiti).
KIS BPM is in turn based on [Oryx 
Editor|https://code.google.com/p/oryx-editor/] now 
[Signavio|http://www.signavio.com/] (Activiti is reported as [OEM 
partner|http://www.signavio.com/partner-details/activiti/]). In any case, the 
Open Source version is released under LGPL 3.0 so it falls under [excluded 
licenses|http://www.apache.org/legal/3party.html#category-x].

This barely means that we cannot include the Activiti Modeler in Syncope 
artifacts in any form: I have then set the admin console build process so that 
the Activiti Modeler is downloaded (and patched to work with admin console) at 
build time into a separate directory.

I have gone with this solution since the build process is already parametric 
for two other external directories (as [reported in the 
wiki|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SYNCOPE/Run+Syncope+in+real+environments#RunSyncopeinrealenvironments-Buildanddeploy]),
 so having it parametric for three isn't a big deal.

Bottom line, we are not including any forbidden dependency in any of Syncope 
artifacts (source and binary).

> Activiti, the default user workflow engine, is shipping in its latest 
> versions the open source version of the KIS BPM process solution.
> Basically, a web editor that can be used to author BPMN 2.0 compliant 
> processes graphically. More information at: 
> http://www.activiti.org/components.html
> The idea is to embed such component in the admin console, next to the current 
> XML-based editor.
