Hey,
I am looking into using OpenWFEru for solving a workflow need that I
currently have. I am quite familiar with the workflow orchestration
tools and technologies in the J2EE stack but this is my first shot at
it in the RoR world! I'm working on some PoCs currently, and here is
my question -

I have been able to define a couple of process definitions with a few
tasks (or participants) associated with each of those. I created an
instance of this process (using a bunch of different engines like
FsPersistedEngine, ArPersistedEngine, etc) and have verified that it
flows through the tasks across the various process definitions. So
far, so good.

However, one or more of my tasks would be interacting with 3rd party
software via web service calls, and ofcourse, it is asynchronous. So,
what I need to be able to achieve is this -

Until I get a response from the 3rd party app(s), I don't want to move
forward with the workflow. It should basically be in a "paused" state
(perhaps, I could pause the engine, but what after that?) and should
resume when it receives a response (HTTP POST, for instance) from the
3rd party app. Does the workflow engine support this?
