[Marc Dutoo <marc.dutoo@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all

Some of us had been expecting it, here it is : our friend Tom's new 
foray in the BPM field.

For those that have been missing the tide since Monday, besides the

BPMN2 for both a brand new engine and a Signavio-powered, web-based 
modeler, REST APIs, Apache License (opening up compatibility with - hint 
hint - Eclipse) and a strong team...

Looks like some healthy (IMHO at least) competition for our friend 
Miguel's (and JWT-integrated) Bonita, whose first reactions are here :
