"Extending Existing Richfaces Project"

Hi,

An existing Maven WAR project uses the following technologies: Spring3.1, 
Hibernate3.5/JPA2, JSF2/Richfaces4.1, & JEE Security.  I now need to extend it 
to add workflow, so I am evaluating jBPM for that.  The application is role 
based in that when a user logs in, he is presented a different view of the 
application and data based on his roles.  Likewise, once the new workflow 
component is added, the user will also be presented with a list (inbox?) of 
pending tasks/activities (Human Tasks?) based on his role (JEE Security role as 
in "HttpServletRequest.isUserInRole()").  I would prefer to use Tomcat 6 or 7 
as the AS, with all the relevant libraries in the WAR, not the AS.

My first question: Is jBPM suited (the best choice) for this?

And if it is, are there available examples to help me through this?  

I am very new to jBPM, though I have some past experience with ALBPM6 (now 
Oracle BPM of course).  

Should I be starting with the jBPM5 demo?  It's not clear to me what the "ant 
start.human.task" piece is doing.  Is that used to run the various examples in 
eclipse (JVM)?  I've run some of the "ProcessTest" examples in the 
"jbpm-examples" project and I've noticed that they do not exit when the 
workflows are complete.  Is this intentional behavior?  (I haven't looked to 
see what threads remain.)

Any help, tips, suggestions, or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much.
John
