Created attachment 1128431 [details] test.bpmn2 Description of problem: 1.1.4.Final introduces a bad namespace for the metadata tag which is required to implement asynchronous continuations in jbpm >= 6.3. http://mswiderski.blogspot.com/2015/04/asynchronous-continuation-in-jbpm-63.html (see comments). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.1.4 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install bpm and rule dev tools 2. New-> jbpm process 3. Add service task 4. Go to general tab and add meta data Actual results: <tns:metaData tns:name="customAsync"> <tns:metaValue><![CDATA[true]]></tns:metaValue> </tns:metaData> Expected results: <tns:metaData name="customAsync"> <tns:metaValue><![CDATA[true]]></tns:metaValue> </tns:metaData> At least with the current XML namespace declarations Additional info: I would be open to an implementation for service tasks and other tasks that has a check box for async continuation, as opposed to the metadata button, as the meta thing is a bit cryptic. BC has this tick button, but unlike JBDS, BC is tied to a runtime version. Probably worth talking to Maciej about this one.

Also worth noting here that the async applies to more than just the service task, but also any work item handler, so whatever solution is chosen needs to apply to any task that can use async continuations,
Bob, please let us know, If you decided to fix metadata namespace or you have also added checkbox similarly to web designer.
I have checked latest BPMN2 Modeler for eclipse Mars and I know answer for my previous question. Bob, sorry for needinfo flag and probably notification email you received. The latest jbds tooling is: jbds-9.1.0.Beta2_jbdsis-9.0.0.Beta1 BPMN2 Modeler - 1.2.3.CR2-v20160209-2002 Bug is fixed in: BPMN2 Modeler - 1.2.3.Final-v20160218-1949-B212 When jbds tooling will contain newer BPMN2 Modeler, I will mark this as verified.
After "expert" mode is enabled (Preferences-BPMN2-Editor-Behavior), feature works well on: jbds-9.1.0.Beta2_jbdsis-9.0.0.Beta1 jbds-8.1.0.GA_jbdsis-8.0.6.CR3
Fixed in BPMN2 Modeler versions for Luna: 1.1.6.CR1-v20160318-1403-B1303 Mars: 1.2.4.CR1-v20160318-1302-B107 Neon: 1.3.0.Beta1-v20160318-1302-B41
