It was a time/people resource issue that this support was not added.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Support is not going to be in the 2.1 release but will more than liely be in a future release.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 20 Jun 2007 14:13:55 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/advanced-workflow-on-spaves-and-not-only-content/m-p/110803#M77870 gavinc 2007-06-20T14:13:55Z
