I tryed all NuGet distributions packages and couldn't find Csla.Workflow.dll

Am I missing something?

Due to lack of interest in WF in general, and the fact that there was little valuable functionality in Csla.Workflow, I've basically dropped that assembly.

This was a choice I made last year sometime, because it would have required work to get it functional for WF 4 and I thought I'd see if anyone noticed it wasn't updated.

Here we are, and you are the first to notice :)

I should make it clear though, that CSLA 4 works just fine with WF 4. If you want to use CSLA business objects from workflow activities/tasks, that is no problem and works great.

So the only thing you don't get from Csla.Workflow were a couple half-baked wrappers that make it slightly easier to launch a workflow. Really not the kind of thing that belongs in CSLA in the first place, but something I put in back in the 3.0 and 3.5 days because I found them useful for demos.

I noticed it not because I need it or use it . I was updating the dependencies directory of CslaContrib samples from 4.3.12 to 4.3.13. As I couldn't find it on NuGet, I was forced to use the installer MSI. It is indeed on the installer MSI.
