Dharmesh, I plan to push v0.0.2 of stackmate soon. Re: rollback, exceptions are actually caught by Ruote and causes it to call 'cancel' on participants that are already running. Rollback would involve finding the error status from Ruote (engine.errors) and then executing a new process definition that destroys the resources that are already created. For example, if the original schedule created resources A,B,C,D,E and got an error in D, then the rollback schedule should delete C,B,A in that order.
