Is Kepler planned to add the ability to create dynamic workflows determined by 
the output of rules engines such as Drools or Esper?  I would like the ability 
to be able to let Kepler choose from a set of static workflows for individual 
xml files based on the data in the xml file.  Here is a short description of 
the use-case: 

1) An xml file is recieved by a generic Kepler workflow. 

2) An Actor looks into the xml file for specific fields and passes that 
information to a rules engine. 

3) The rules engine determines the specific workflow to send the xml file to, 
or conversely the rules engine determines the specific actors and edges to 
determine the optimum workflow for the file. 

4) Kepler routes the file through the workflow or actors defined by the rules 
engine. 



This functionality mirrors the Dynamic Routing Slip enterprise integration 
pattern.  Can Kepler do this now, or is it planned in the near or long term?
