[news.eclipse.technology.jwt] [XPDL] MetaModel - XPDL comparison documen

["Steve Egbert" <steve.egbert@xxxxxxxx>]

I am begining to write my document detailing my comparisons between the 
AgilPro metamodel, and what can be described with XPDL. My approach is going 
to be to identify what is needed to import any arbitrary XPDL into the 
metamodel, as I think this is the quickest way of assessing the completeness 
of the metamodel.

I am also going to start with XPDL 1.0, with Bonita extensions. XPDL 2.0 is 
considerably more complex. The schema is almost 4 times as large and has 142 
elements that must be accomodated vs 90 in 1.0. If my document is suficient 
for our needs, I can then extend it to cover 2.0. I am including the Bonita 
extensions because any implementation is expected to have vendor specific 
extensions, we must be sure we can accomodate them, and the Bonita 
extensions are the ones I know.

I know that some of you want to see what I am coming up with, and I would 
like your feedback as I go as to whether what I am producing is useful. 
However, I don't really think I should put my document out on the Wiki until 
it is done.

Is there someplace I can post my work in progress, so you can review it?
What format is best?

I am currently composing it in Word 97, although I expect to publish it in 
pdf when it is done. I could switch my working copy to Open Office, if that 
would be more beneficial.
