I am interested in this. I don't know about a plugin implementation the way you describe (page flow, etc.), but I have been trying evaluating different workflow/business rule engines lately. I am more interested in integration from an application perspective... I.e. Launch a workflow from an action, create/edit/manage workflows and business rules from a struts app, etc. -Wes -- Wes Wannemacher Author - Struts 2 In Practice Includes coverage of Struts 2.1, Spring, JPA, JQuery, Sitemesh and more http://www.manning.com/wannemacher --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
