Hi Eryk,

If you're taking the framework route; more from a Java developer's perspective; than these 'low level' things like Tomcat and JAR files should be basic stuff.
But if you're more interested using features (in stead of developing them) then I think Alfresco Activiti will be a better fit.
Try it out for free on; activiti.alfresco.com

I understand your point. BTW low level does not mean any less value, this is used by sysadmin vocabulary, where I come from. With low I mean nearer to the application server, i.e. tomcat.
As I told you sooner or later ( hope sooner than later ) we wish to do add controls, so better understanding of low level issues will be fundamental.
But, … where to start ?
We would need a step to step easy to perform approach which leads to more and more complicated issues.
Where do we find this ? I see the user guide is written by and for high skilled persons.
Java knowledge, basic understanding of the tomcat server, etc seems not to be enough.
That´s our problem.
