Hi,
The ServiceMix project provides a good JBI platform but its currently
lacking a service orchestration engine. We have a Business Process
Engine
that we'd like to donate to the ServiceMix project. It handles
orchestration of message exchanges along with support for open
standards like BPEL 1.1 and is easy to integrate into ServiceMix.
You can
review the code here at:
ftp://ftp.sybase.com/pub/incoming/wcss/bpe/bpe-src.tar.gz
The code is currently licensed under a Sybase evaluation license but
we are happy to supply an Apache licensed version assuming the code is
acceptable to the ServiceMix community. We are also happy to change
the package names to conform to Apache. We would be happy to help
support this aspect of ServiceMix within your community and work
closely with others to improve the engine and take it to the next
level. Would you be interested in accepting an Apache version of the
message orchestration code?
Awesome stuff! We could really use a process engine.
I've had a look through the code and it looks really nice and simple
- it'd be very easy to integrate. I'm certainly all for this
donation, it looks great. (Can't wait to try it out with ServiceMix :)
Before we can accept the donation we'd need to call a vote on the
Geronimo PMC and then there's some Software Grant / IP clearance
documents we'd need to go through; but if you're happy to donate the
code & IP to Apache this is a big win for the Apache community as a
whole.

Many thanks Cory! Am very excited about this!
