yes, I read the user guide, but I don't get the point of using a 'form'
if 'variables' was created to pass data between activities within a process instance, then what's the intention of using a 'form' ?
I'm new to work flow, and I guess this is probably a stupid question Smiley Sad , could anybody paste some practical code of form ?
(I saw the examples, and I still don't get why we just simply use variables)

In my view a form serves for using a human as some kind of "service" processor Smiley Wink :
The form may present some input data and a description of what to do,
and after thinking (hopefully) the person adds or updates values in the form,
being the results of this kind of "service".
Additionally, taslists are used for person orchestration, i.e. for getting the persons to the forms.
