By now I have a simple workflow running using the WorkflowInstanceFacade.

I took the code from the tests as a reference.

So you don't recommend building my code around WorkflowInstanceFacade? We plan 
to work together with someone from Manchester - so keeping the code up to date 
should be possible. Are there any technical reasons not to do this?

I executed the following command:
mvn archetype:generate 
-DarchetypeCatalog=http://www.cyclonic.org/t2platform/repository/

I could chose between a console-app and a web-app. I went for the console-app 
(#1). Then it tried to download 
http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/sf/taverna/t2/archetypes/platform-application/p0.1b1/platform-application-p0.1b1.jar
 which is not available.


By creating my own application and POM this problem instead of using the 
archetype this isn't important to me anymore. But the person responsible for 
the archetypes might want to have a look at it.

Thank you very much for helping out.
