I have continued to explore the possibility of supporting FSMs
(finite state machines) and workflows with REST-ful applications.
In order to do so I've implemented several simple source code
generator which produces REST-ful Quixote applications that
implement an FSM or workflow. These code generators read an XML
document that describes the FSM/workflow, its states, and its
transitions. It generates the skeleton of a Quixote application.
And, I've written a document about it, with attached support code
and examples.
You can find this document at:

The attached example files contain code that is from Juan David
Ibáñez Palomar. Thanks Juan David.
