Here you can find information related to the Workflow Perl distribution.
The 'Workflow' Perl module implements a standalone workflow system. It aims to be simple but flexible and therefore powerful. Each piece of the 'Workflow' system has a direct and easily stated job, and hopefully you will find that you can put the pieces together to create very useful systems.
Read the documentation ('perldoc Workflow') for a more detailed introduction, sample usage, interactions with your applications, and more. More documentation will be written as a part of this site some time in the future
'perl-Workflow' is normally referred to as 'Workflow' the name perl-workflow was picked when moving project activities to SourceForge, where the name was occupied by a Java project, however the distribution of the system on CPAN is called 'Workflow' and on this site the system will be referred to as 'Workflow' and perl-workflow interchangeably.
'Workflow' was originally initiated and developed by Chris Winters.
'Workflow' is currently maintained by a group of people, if you are interested in participating please refer to the Development section of this Wiki.
The goal of 'Workflow' is to be a complete standalone workflow system, where the user can implement generic workflows using this framework. The project in it's current form are running under these project directives in order to define the scope of the project
