Subject: [MediaWiki-l] Advice needed for BPM flowchart support for MediaWiki

Hi,

I am thinking seriously about creating, or at least helping to oversee the 
creation of, a MediaWiki extension that lets users create flowcharts for use in 
BPM (business process management, or business process modeling). The extension 
would most likely be a wrapper around bpmn-js, an open source JavaScript 
library that does this sort of thing pretty nicely:

https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__bpmn.io_toolkit_bpmn-2Djs_&d=DwIGaQ&c=ApwzowJNAKKw3xye91w7BE1XMRKi2LN9kiMk5Csz9Zk&r=9NM-9omoRra7fL56CWslBkAVE25KY5Ff9rp6kNpFDRw&m=WAI6nmn2GhU9wywDH3L0FOtJxJKn2Zm1TACRKI7MwwM&s=mlcdf0Ew3qkAQ7ngnABvqlXcSNVsBvmNKMHBRZgN2AU&e=

There already is a MediaWiki extension that includes bpmn-js - Cognitive 
Process Designer:

https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.mediawiki.org_wiki_Extension-3ACognitive-5FProcess-5FDesigner&d=DwIGaQ&c=ApwzowJNAKKw3xye91w7BE1XMRKi2LN9kiMk5Csz9Zk&r=9NM-9omoRra7fL56CWslBkAVE25KY5Ff9rp6kNpFDRw&m=WAI6nmn2GhU9wywDH3L0FOtJxJKn2Zm1TACRKI7MwwM&s=KNGsKQvrH9TvELG0yQNRaIzbbvKcAD48n3ICMEeWYIs&e=

However, my understanding is that it no longer works with recent versions of 
MediaWiki. Also, I disagree with some of the design decisions made on that 
extension, so I think creating a new extension makes sense.

I'm not actually looking for funding or development help at the moment - though 
both of those would be great to have - but rather some advice. I'm looking for 
people who have dealt with BPM, and would like to be able to edit and display 
such charts, and BPM information in general, in a wiki. If this description 
fits you, please email me back - I have a bunch of questions and ideas I want 
to bounce off other people.

-Yaron
