This is flexible depending on how you want it. If you give authors  
"approve" permission, when they save changes it will automatically  
become visible to other HyperContent users, and visible in the portal  
if you are proxying directly from the HyperContent server.  You may  
set up publishing as a single step or multiple steps if you want a  
staging area before content hits the public web, and you can also  
choose to proxy into the portal from the web server hosting the  
published site if you don't want changes appearing immediately upon  
save.

If an author does not have "approve" permission, they will be  
redirected to the approvals screen on saving a file, where they can  
request approval.  By default the workflow script sends email to  
members of "group:approvers" whenever an item needs approval, and  
approvers will also be able to see a list of items awaiting approval  
from the Workflow tab on any page within the project.

There's not much organized documentation, I'm afraid.  Since  
releasing 2.0 I've been continuing to develop new features, I need to  
take a break so I can write a manual!
