Runa Consulting group ::: Roadmap

There are many interesting ideas on how RunaWFE project could be enhanced in future. Those that look as the most practical today fall into several basic categories:

Form engine improvements

This includes a support for third-party form-renderers like MS InfoPath, Free Maker or JSF and a support for RunaWFE-specific elements in GPD FCK-editor.

Integration improvements

The general idea is to make RunaWFE API available via Web-services interface.

Database support improvements

A migration to hibernate3 is also planned in 3.x development stream.

Customization support improvements

A number of new task handlers, action handlers organizational functions and GUI elements could be developed to make RunaWFE easily customizable for concrete needs and serving as an example for new developments.

Code-base improvements

Further project factorization, automated testing, build scripts evolution, support for EJB3... - all the things to make the project more maintainable and to simplify the learning curve for community members.
