Site Rules
The site is open to the public for reading, so please keep the content to public information. Modification of pages should be reserved to a set of authors who are knowledgeable about the field and approved by those who run this site. This precaution to limit the number of authors is necessary to reduce the amount of spam that has to be cleaned up. If you wish to contribute to the site, please contact Keith Swenson in order to get the necessary priviledges.
The focus of the site is about workflow and BPM technology standards. Every page must have some relevance to that. Part of this site is about products that implement the standards. Information about commercial or open source products should be limited only to details relevant to the workflow and BPM standards.
