[Op-torch-devel] Plone 2.1 migration

[Michael R. <os...@ea...>]

Hey Jake,

I have been working on the workflow stuff.  The projects I have found  
are following:

1) DCWorkflow: is trigger based workflow.  You have to actively move  
objects from one workflow state to the next.  NOt really what we  
want.  It will work, but not ideal.

2) OpenFlow: activity based, API is documented OK, not a lot of  
examples that I have found.

3) CMFOpenFlow: activity based, is a fork of OpenFlow, more tightly  
integrated into plone, better documented, but older.

4) AlphaFlow: activity based, good documentation (that I can see,)  
including how to do a file system based definition, the others above  
really only document how to do it through the UI, not really what we  
want.  But, it really needs Plone 2.1, and Zope 2.8.  Our product  
runs on 2.8 fine, I have found no glitches yet.  Haven't moved to  
Plone 2.1, but it should be pretty painless.

I would like to use 4 above, if not, then provably 2.

Thoughts?

Michael
