Needing for jbi services orchestration, two options are available : the bpe
service engine and the bpel lightweight component.
It seems that "Lightweight components are simple jbi components that
activate a single JBI endpoint and do not support service unit deployments",
what does it really mean?
thanks again.

The two modules are meant for different process engines.
BPE is a BPEL 1.1 implementation that was recently open-sourced and
donated by Sybase into the Apache incubator.
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ode/scratch/bpe/
PXE is a BPEL 1.1+2.0 implementation that was donated by Intalio into
the Apache incubator.
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ode/scratch/pxe/
Both of these implementations form the Apache Ode project. Some useful
links about Ode are:
http://incubator.apache.org/projects/ode.html
http://wiki.apache.org/ode/FrontPage
There is an ongoing effort to rationalize and integrate both BPE and PXE
to form a common implementation, as described on the roadmap:
http://wiki.apache.org/ode/RoadMap
In the mean time, ServiceMix offers ways to integrate both BPE and PXE
by offering the two distinct JBI service engine wrappers that you
mentioned.
