I am having difficulty finding information on Magnolia workflow. We would
like to use Magnolia workflow for processes other than activation and
approval. Specifically, we need instantiation of a template instance to
launch a complex product workflow culminating in publication to an ecommerce
web site.

To my knowledge, a couple of brief documents are available:

A)
http://documentation.magnolia.info/docs/en/administrator/activation/activationwf.html
B) http://www.magnolia.info/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=WorkflowIntroduction

This information describes the "activation" workflow. That is one example of
a workflow. It does not explain how the integration of openWFE in Magnolia
works in general. There are certain aspects of this integration that are
apparent from the above documents;

1) On the Configuration->Workflows page, there is a "Launch flow" area that
appears to tie the workflow to nodes in the repository.
  What does this "Launch flow" control? What is the acceptable syntax?

2) there are "command sequences" used to launch workflows.
  This appears to be limited in granularity to the entire repository (note
#1 from document A (above)).
  I need to associate workflows at a more granular level (e.g. Node type).
  How does this functionality differ/interact with #1 (above)?

3) there are certain tokens that can be used in the openWFE workflow
definition to refer to Magnolia data elements.
   For example, ${field:action}. What is the entire list of tokens?

I need details in order to use openWFE capabilities in a more general sense.

Thanks,

Bob
