Intalio, although in the short term I think we're going to just build
a custom solution without a general-purpose BPM. All we really needed
was an approval-and-notification system, and the business logic for
this is simple enough and consistent enough that a flexible BPM system
isn't really necessary.

In terms of a broader BPM solution though, which I think we will be
adopting sooner or later, over the course of several meetings I found
it increasingly difficult to make a case for OpenWFEru... the system
analyst/business people found the language confusing (they really just
want flow diagrams), and the programmers argued that using OpenWFEru
adds complexity without much added benefit (all the real work happens
in parcipants, and writing participants for OpenWFEru can be somewhat
awkward right now).

I'm a bit disappointed since 1) this will limit my ability to continue
working on Fluxr, and 2) I'm trying to push Ruby at my organization as
much as possible (I have grandiose visions of an enterprise powered by
ActiveResource-centered apps), and so far this has been the first time
when I couldn't make it work :(
