jBPM4 isnt beta anymore ... GA was released last Friday. But we're very happy 
that you are excited :-)

JBPM 3.2.2 processes in our production user management system (custom, I

module (timers, sub-processes, etc). The module really is incomplete.

The new spring-integration fixes all the flaws of the Spring module approach. 
Take a look at the dev guide for documentation about the Spring integration.

correct?

The jBPM 4.0 distribution has a 'migration tool' for process definitions 
(xmls). This will get you started, but will not cover every feature yet. Also, 
check the dev guide for more info.

For data migration, we simply don't have the team resources to work out a 
complete database migration. So unless someone hire JBoss consultants to do it 
and open sources it, this will not happen.

Note that jBPM4 is designed so it can run next to jBPM3 (no package name 
clashes or database schema clashes).

More migration info, see devguide:

Thank you for the quick reply.

Even better... where am I getting my dated information?

That might be an acceptable solution, to run 3  4 in tandem, but might make 
the application a bit bloated, especially with the wacky spring integration 
module... I'll certainly keep it in mind.

Thanks for the link to the dev guide... I had not found that documentation yet.

I am going to give the upgrade and data migration to version 4 a try.  We are 
not using a lot of the functionality in 3 and this might help us in the move.  
If you are interested I will keep you informed.
