Dear Denis

Thank you for your reply but I could not find anything about supporting of BPEL in Alfresco. I just want to that if I define a prcess with BPEL, is it possible to deploy it in Alfresco?

We haven't yet embedded jbpm's support bpel into the Alfresco server, so it's not possible to deploy bpel processes (at least out-of-the-box).

However, I don't see why it's not possible to include jbpm-bpel into Alfresco's stack.

You'll also find that Alfresco exposes most of it's services via WSDL, so you can integrate Alfresco into any stand-alone bpel workflow server.
