The online docs mention possible 1.0 support for Agila BPM in ServiceMix. Is this pending Agila passing incubation status with Apache?

No, we're hoping to come up with a generic plugin for BPM engines. We should be able to implement in Agila today really


 Is there any discussion on supporting other workflow systems, such as OSWorkflow?

There are folks interested in jBPM, Agila, openwfe and now it appears OSWorkflow.

What I hope we can do is come up with some easy to implement and easy to extend WSDL/XSD API for workflow, then provide implementations of the service for different workflow engines - then we've a reasonably standard way to interact with BPMs (add tasks, start processes and so forth) and drop in any workflow engine to do the implementation.

There's a few folks lurking on the mail list interested in this topic. I wonder to get the ball rolling, Jeff/Bruce do you have a strawman WSDL we could start with to get the ball rolling?
