hi,

Has anyone had any experience with Drools, JBoss's rule engine?
We need to understand especially how quick is its setup and initial learning curve, and ask some newbie questions...

thanks,

I have some limited experience with Rule Engines,
set up should not be an issue,
learning curve, well, that depends on the problem you are trying to solve,
Drools java integration should be good, so you'll feel at home,
but the programing model is very different and might take a moment or two to get used to.
Peter can give you some hints on cases where RE should be used (e.g. inductive reasoning).
