Basically the execution-server isn't polling Guvnor-server for changes to rule resources...only way to trigger a refresh is to touch the deployment descriptor - which is a dirty hack && takes the service down for a few moments.

It would be fantastic to get this implemented in the otherwise excellent execution server 5.2

TIA!!
