Hello, I've been perplexed lately working on a SharePoint state machine workflow. I was hoping to add some modification forms to the workflow so that I could reassign a task while in its state.

I have installed the SharePoint infrastructure update, but it did not resolve the issue. The workflow is also set to listen for an item change event, if I change the item after the delay in...
There is a pretty strong need for us to design some workflows around various processes. The problem is none of us actually know any workflow technology yet, and finding good data to compare the available options has been tedious and not entirely fruitful. So I figured I'd ask you guys. The main technologies we are looking at are Windo...

The more I think about how I use computers, the more I become convinced that 'workflow' is the key factor in terms of productivity, and the way I should go about designing interactions. I'm thinking of workflow as the way we approach and manage data, information and knowledge as it relates to a task. I'm starting out with my first web-...
I have seen lots of chat examples in Erlang but what about lists, like a work queue?
