[Albert Boulanger]

This is old, but may be of use at leas for ideas... It does include a
graphical editor for workflow.

Chautauqua (Carlos Maltzahn, last update 13-Oct-1996)
Chautauqua is a client server workflow system implemented almost
entirely in Python. It uses Paos (Python active object server) as a
server, a web server extended by Python CGI programs and various
(interactive and non-interactive) Python clients.

Chautauqua is an experimental workflow system that was developed by
Carlos Maltzahn and David Vollmar under the auspice of Skip Ellis. Its
design focusses on dynamic change and exception handling. Workflow
systems generally consist of two components: the specification component
allows the implementation of workflow models (including employees,
roles, documents, activities, and sequencing); the enactment component
ensures that activities occurr in accordance to the implemented workflow
model. Dynamic change refers to the implementation of changes to a
workflow model during its enactment. Exception handling refers to the
support of activities which temporarily deviate from the enacted
workflow model.
