Hello Hans,

I think of ill defined processes which grow over time. My custumers
are all small companies and even where they believe they have well
defined processes, I think they'll find out their processes are not
well defined.
So I guess if I would introduce Gjallar to any of them the normal case
would be that every more complex process will change over time.

HNB> You think for an translation of processes ? Or more in the direction

evolution is one aspect, insight that the description (=Gjallar
process) doesn't match the real process is the other.
HNB> deadly complicated if all could be changed. So from this I see these
HNB> different things we must look in gjallar:
I have only looked into very few methods but having a list of obsolete
processes for the old versions and a case carrying a list of processes
....
I like to discuss the value of a feature before discussing its costs.
HNB> - input errors which may have no history
that would be exchanging the process of a case while it its in the
Inbox.
HNB> - evolution of things which have a small transition and history
Yes, except that people might migrate old cases and then things get a
bigger history quickly.
HNB> - create things from building blocks and no history
That's interesting. I could learn how to build blocks with a flexible
number of inputs and outputs (= transitions?) and a *usable* interface
for that.
HNB> BTW Herbert, do you have tried to send a big file to the list ? I got
HNB> a bomb of many notifies about it...;-)
I only tried once, and actually I only wanted to send it to Göran. But
I only sent once, so the bombing came from elsewhere. (Maybe gmx?)
Actually I wait for Gjallar for Gjallar :-)) so that the link goes
here and the report goes to Gjallar.
