[opencms-dev] RE : New OpenCms 7 Workflow Module

[David Trattnig]

Another note: If you don't want to customize the
opencms-workplace.xmlmanually the modified one can be found in the
patches folder inside SVN.
I've also attached it plus an eclipse patch file.

If anything is unclear just ask ;-)

cheers
david
