OK, I filed that as a bug and I'll check and fix the documentation. Thanks.

Yet another documentation problem (filed a todo this time). The
participant expression accepts a "timeout" attribute so that you could
write :
<participant ref="toto" timeout="2w" />
or
participant :ref => "toto" :timeout => "14d2h"
After the timeout triggered, the participant is cancelled (a
"cancelitem" is emitted).
This is currently only documented in the OpenWFEja manual :

Thanks for the feedback, best regards,
