Job,

I was able to get a fair amount of info on Orbeon,
but on Chiba - it's almost nothing: most links are broken (demo, etc.),
I can't gather much at all. Could you recommend a good source of info?

Have you tried Orbeon Form Builder ?  What's your impression ?

Have you tried Lotus Forms ?

Thank you,
Oleg.

If you are looking for XForm tools you should check out orbeon and chiba. They 
are both pretty decent.

Regards,

Job
