JBoss BRMS Primer - getting started with JBoss BRMS

By popular demand we revisit the the JBoss Business Rules Management System (BRMS) Primer series. 

This guide will get you up and running with this product, to run a demo, kick start a Proof of Concept (PoC), or just to let you explore the use cases that these products can cover. 

The main tool for teaching you about what this product can do will be the example demo projects. These projects attempt to tackle a simple aspect and not become complicated vertical solutions. They are self contained, requiring only that you can clone a repository using git and that you download the products required for the demos from the Customer Portal (http://access.redhat.com).
