Activiti integration with Xwiki (or any other wiki)

[rmeziani]

Hello,
I would like to use your platform to validate an agile BPM approach (AGILIPO) developed with other researchers, see published paper:

https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http://socialbits.eu/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/agilipo.pdf

To do this, we would like to integrate your platform in a wiki (ANY wiki, but I had Xwiki in mind, as it allows Java plugins http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/), in order to leverage its design principles and its social features. Do you know if this has already been already done by someone? can we integrate Activiti with Xwiki (or other)? Is it through a Java plugin?

I appreciate your help and support.

Very interesting article!  Aligns with our ideas about bringing social and BPM together.

Can you describe more concrete what links between the wiki and the process engine you would like to build?  Then we can give you more concrete pointers on how to get started.

Thanks Tom,
My research interests are from the methodology aspect, but other colleagues did some work on the tool implementation. You can have a look at this paper:

As I already mentioned, my focus for the short term, is be able to use your modeling engine within the wiki in order to leverage its social features (editing, rating, reviewing, tagging, etc…). I would like to use it to run an initial case study that will help me to refine the approach.
