Workflow engine status

I was looking at Jakarta for a workflow engine and I
found this URL -
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/proposal-workflow.html.
What I can't find is when this proposal was written
and if this workflow engine is included in the latest
release of Struts.

Thanks for your help,
Kevin

An initial crack at code to implement this proposal is in the
"jakarta-commons-sandbox" CVS repository, under package "workflow".  It
hasn't been worked on for a long time, and in truth it would be better to
start over again based on something like Jetty than continue to invent yet
another scripting language written in XML.

It depends how you define workflow. This extension takes care of web 
workflow, i. e. it lets the developer define which paths a user can take 
when traversing a web application. This is something, Struts does not 
address.

Seems like we are about to start a flame war on this ;-)

It didn't say that this is a workflow engine. I just tried to point 
Kevin to a this extension because it might cover what he is looking for.

I don't think that there has been anybody working on this proposal for 
several months. It is definitely not part of the latest Struts releases.

Depending on what your requirements are, you might want to have a look 
at the Struts Workflow Extension at  http://www.livinglogic.de/Struts .

Sorry if this is a bit late but the people behind the Lenya software are 
investigating whether
they can use different workflow engines through some sort of standard API. 
Admittedly
Lenya has nothing to do with Struts but it may be of some help.

Lenya is an Apache Incubator project which is essentially an XML content 
management system
based upon Apache Cocoon.
