The paths selected are based on specific business rules that may be linked to internal logic restrictions and/or agreements between parties. Either way, the context via the decision point provides an 'indicator' of the path and can affect the outcome. One option is to provide a reference to the rule or (what Ricky calls the decision point) or, based on the business context (roles, agreements, etc.), substitute the logic for the appropriate decision point (within the choreography). Would we consider this an external event?
