Am sometimes getting a bit sidetracked by arguments on BPEL vs BPM vs XPDL. I don't see these as being disjoint from each other Great paper and I liked you 35000 ft view of BPMN

I’m just getting started with learning about BPM — coming from a more IT side than a business side, I’m finding this fascinating. Am sometimes getting a bit sidetracked by arguments on BPEL vs BPM vs XPDL. I don’t see these as being disjoint from each other

I personally really like Intalio but if I were a determined Java shop I would probably go with jBoss and the jBPM editor. Dave Hi Midhun,

I'll leave this up here for someone else to comment on because I don't have a lot of experience mixing workflow engines. I think that most of the vendor specific workflow solutions, even if they call their engines XPDL compatible, are going to throw in enough customizations that it would give you fits trying to write cross-platform XPDL that will run flawlessly on them. db Pinaki,

They are having a user conference in San Francisco this June, I would recommend attending that as a great place to start out. Here's a link to more info on that: https://www.regonline.com/builder/site/Default.aspx?eventid=614576 I'm not sure yet if I'm going to make it down there, but looking at the agenda, it sounds really good. db Manuj,

I am a PHP programmer just starting out with a workflow concept. I am new to all these concepts thought I have had a reading on sites like wikipedia etc.

I wanted to ask you one thing that how to get started developing applications quicky.
