Java event handling framework
I'm looking for a lightweight framework that builds on top of the Process Manager template:
http://www.eaipatterns.com/ProcessManager.html
I am particularly interested in using this to handle events, whereby I am interested in the success or failure of a particular event and passing a message to another "stage" based on that result. There may be other results besides success and failure, so I want something a little flexible ...
I'm really not looking for a heavyweight ESB to handle this kind of situation, as it seems like a bust. Spring integration looks ok for this kind of thing. Can anyone recommend any other framework to help achieve this?
An alternative is to create something using the basic Spring framework ...

Apache Camel implements templates from the EIP book. I think it does exactly what you need it to do.
Camel can be used with Spring and can be deployed in several different containers depending on your requirements.
