Exporting to XPDL 2.0 format (for use in ALM11)

[David01]

We need a confirmed answer from someone w.r.t. the below. We use Quality Centre (ALM11) and it can import models. One of our clients uses EA. Do you have suggestions?

ALM supports 2 Notations:
1.      BPMN v 1.1 Business Process Modeling  Notation.
2.      EPC v 7.1 (Event-Driven Process Chain) Developed within the ARIS framework. It appears that ARIS of Software AG and VISIO of MS (among others) use this notation.

Models should be exported (for Import to QC) from the modeling tools in one of 2 formats:
1. XPDL 2.0 XML Process definition Language - is a format standardized by the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC) to interchange business process definitions between different workflow products
2. ARIS XML file formats

When reading the manual I see that EA can export BPMN 2.0 models to BPMN 2.0 XML

Maybe there's a version of Aris that supports the same format?
