You will notice that the BPEL functionality is provided by two Tuscany modules; implementation-bpel - contains the generic model of the implementation.bpel element that appears inside composite files implementation-bpel-ode - contains the intergation with ODE There is every intention that someone could build an implementation-bpel-myfavouritebpelengine and use that instead of implementation-bpel-ode by simply changing which modules appear on the classpath.
