How to create and require completion of a subset of several tasks Workflow Foundation?

Question

I have a process that requires approval from any two out of a group of four or five people. I'd like to create a task assigned to each person, and after two of those tasks are complete, delete the remaining tasks and move on with the workflow.

Is there a way to create multiple tasks with a single CreateTask activity? Also, I'm still fairly new to WF, so if I store the TaskIDs in an array, can I iterate over them to delete the remaining tasks after the fact?

Or am I going about this entirely the wrong way? I'm open to suggestions.

I am not sure if they apply to Sharepoint, but check these posts from Matt Winkler:

• Different Execution Patterns with WF (or, Going beyond Sequential and State Machine)
• Implementing the N of M Pattern in WF

I think that the second post describes exactly your case.
