RE: [Openflow-dev] What is OpenFlow?

[George R. <gr...@em...>]

I am not quite sure how much of this is 'in working condition' ... I've
installed it before and it just appearred to be containers that hold
specific types of objects.  this is pre-pre-pre-Alpha ware.  You _need_ ZOPE
www.zope.org (application server) which openflow runs on top of.  and it
would be helpful if you knew Python programming language (really easy to
learn) www.python.org .  as far as the workflow management- I'm still
wondering what the 'roadmap' is... 

I belive openflow to be a 'product' inside of ZOPE which will allow you to
easily manipulate and create workflow (I think this qualifies as a
'framework'? ) I'm on the list to see the updates and the path it is taking.
Andrea - if your not familiar with ZOPE, please download and take a look.
really great application.

Sorry, I don't understand clearly what a "set of tools
for the workflow and document flow management" is.  I gather
it's something that can mechanize administrative processes,
but I am not familiar with that kind of applications.
Could you please explain the purpose of your tool more
extensively?

Also: is it a self-standing application, or a component,
e.g., a library or framework?

Does it depend on other software (libraries, languages)?

Thanks,
