To me, the approach taken by wfmc represents best practice of a group of companies
building workflow systems. Many workflow systems have used this model and to me there
two main advantages:

1) Avoid reinventing the wheel.
2) Interoperability with other workflow systems or other workflow design packages
designed
to work with the wfmc model.
