I recently saw in a posting on Tijs' blog (http://bpmn20inaction.blogspot.com/2014/07/activiti-516-feature-preview.html) that the solution for joining of parallel/inclusive gateways had been cleaned up in 5.16 so that it was not necessary to use external frameworks to address the issue of optimistic locks. This all looks great, but I can't seem to get it to work, I'm still seeing the ActivitiOptimisticLockingException.
TIA, Rick
