Modeler and designer question

[activiti-admin]

Hi guys,

First congrats with the launch of Activity, things sure look promising!
In the components list of Activity I see a modeler and a designer component mentioned.
I figured out that the modeler component will be provided by Signavio, but what about the designer component? Will that be an eclipse based editor, and will it still be part of the roadmap?
Is my conclusion right that the modeler will not be an Apache licensed open source component part of Activity, but an implementation that will be provided by Signavio as-is?

Best regards,

Tijs

Hi Tijs,

Regarding the Eclipse designer, check this topic: http://forums.activiti.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=20

The Signavio modeler that is rebranded to Activiti Modeler, is MIT licenced. MIT and Apache licence are both very liberal and compatible licences.

Thanks for the info.
Is this the Signavio Modeler project you are referring to? http://code.google.com/p/signavio-oryx-initiative/
Or can you point me to the right project location?

Thanks,

Tijs

@Tijs: that's indeed the correct repository location. We still need to rebrand some stuff there 😉
