JBPM Migrator (Part 2)

My previous post discussed the JBPM migrator, a small project we wrote to handle the migration of JBPM process instances. Since that post, we had several requests to open-source the code. We managed to get the code to the JBPM team in late August.

The JBoss team have taken our code and implemented it in the 4.2 version of the
JBPM release. The developer responsible for doing this made a number of significant changes (this is to be expected because we developed the migrator for version 3.2.2 of JBPM), so much so that it really doesn't resemble the work that we originally did. Neverthesless, JBPM 4.2 is now capable of performing migrations!

A number of organizations (ourselves included) are still using version 3.2.2 of JBPM and are asking to get their hands on the original version of the migrator. To address this, I have renamed the project as jbpm-instance-migrator and published it on Google Code under the LGPL license.

At this point, I would ask anyone who is interested in this project to download the code and give it a try. Please submit any issues, requests, or questions you may have to the project (not to this blog). Your feedback is welcome.
