Oracle BPM 10gR3 (ALBPM 6.5) GA

Oracle BPM 10gR3 which was BEA AquaLogic BPM, Fuego BPM is GA now.

From the new versioning, we can clearly see that it is 10.3. However, in fact it is 6.5.

After the acquisition, ALBPM has been renamed to Oracle BPM and put into the Oracle Fusion Middleware stack, along with Oracle BPEL Process Manager and Oracle BPA Suite.

I have no idea why the links on the page below haven't been upgraded yet. Maybe Oracle is going to decommission the BEA page.

Oracle BPM 10gR3 docs
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13154_01/bpm/docs65/index.html
The docs are still not helpful enough, I hope that Oracle improves its newly acquired products. At least make them as good as Oracle Database docs.

All BEA docs, including new versions of WebCenter Interaction suite (AquaLogic User Interaction).

Enjoy the new release. I believe that the next GA will be named 11g, if there is such thing.
