The idea is to provide not one but several built-in workflows for Plone, to respond to 80% of common Use Cases and also to show there is a powerful wf engine in Plone, not just an hardcoded wf like many CMS around.

Modifing workflows is difficult for many site managers, so we will give them some easy choice.

Available workflows

One state workflow

Immeditate publication, a dumb workflow for non-workflowed content and very small sites. The one state workflow is useful when you do not want workflow at all in your Plone, and you just want your contents to show up. The one state is also useful if you want only a particular kind of content (i.e. a forum post or a FAQ) to automatically show.

Simple publication workflow

Simple publication is especially useful for small portals and small intranets (with some modifications), when no reviewer is necessary; it is a one-step publication process.

Intranet workflow

In intranet workflow only members can access portal contents; an internal document can be also internally published when it is somehow official for the organization or company.

Community workflow

This is a refactored Plone Default workflow; the default Plone workflow is enough general for most portals and intranets; with simple customizations it can be adapted to address many use cases.
