'Uploading' a workflow...

Hi everybody,I'm starting to dig into Alfresco Community 4.2.c, this is my very first post and I installed the bin file into a Centos server 3 days ago, so i have little to nothing knowledge about it. Also please notice together with the Community edition I installed Eclipse with the Activity Design

Ok i have made some homeworks and now i have a handy ant build.xml file that scp a helloworld.bpmn file to the alfresco/workflow directory and a someco-workflow-context.xml parent directory alfresco/ [the intire path is [font=Courier]/opt/alfresco-4.2.c/tomcat/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/[/font] ]
both file content are a copy and paste from the jpotts advanced guide with the correct path, here is the detail of the context.xml file:

 <bean id="someco.workflowBootstrap" parent="workflowDeployer">
<property name="workflowDefinitions">
<list>
   <props>
      <prop key="engineId">activiti</prop>
      <prop key="location">alfresco/workflow/helloworld.bpmn</prop>
      <prop key="mimetype">text/xml</prop>
      <prop key="redeploy">false</prop>
   </props>

</list>
</property>
</bean>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

but the workflow does not get deployed automatically, it is there since i can manually deploy it via the workflow console using

deploy activiti alfresco/workflow/helloworld.bpmn‍

.
What am I missing?
I thought that the deployment of a such an easy workflow with the context file would work something like deploying a .jar in tomcat, you upload it and he handles it. Isn't it?
