Sounds as though, like me, you might just get away with a decision table
parser rather than a fully-fledged corporate rules engine. though your
application is a bit more complex than ours. 

It's surprising to me that we are faced with rolling our own or working
with Java - suggests that PHP still has a bit to go as a platform for
serious business systems.

Are you planning to have PHP run as a servelet within JBoss? Does this
work reliably? I much prefer to keep things as simple as possible.

As an alternative, I worked briefly on a native PHP Petri-net workflow
engine with a guy called Tony Marston before we parted ways. He has
written it up here:
