Why can't you treat an orchestration engine like a component like the
way you treat Axis or XFire? Why does the code have to live within
ServiceMix? Lot of us want a BPEL engine, we don't want a JBI
container. The code coming in does exactly that, it is a BPEL engine
and has no relation to JBI or Java for that matter. Why can't you have
a separate project for BPEL and add glue code as a JBI component
EXACTLY the way you work with other projects like XFire?

Seriously James I've never seen anyone disagree (in any effective
manner) with you on the list(s). Why is that? Is it because all
decisions happen off-list and all that happens here is the love-fest
as Sanjiva described? Community is not about borg-like ok-ing of
proposals.

We seem to agree on the ends but not on the means. You like a very
good integration with a BPEL engine for ServiceMix. I like a very good
BPEL engine for its own sake. Am sure we can find people on both sides
and some who may like both objectives.

Why can't we agree to make it work as a separate entity? If not at
least tell us what your *shopping list* contains as to what other JBI
components you are going to bring in by the time incubation is over?

thanks,
dims
