The following remark on the CmSpecificationV2<http://open-services.net/bin/view/Main/CmSpecificationV2>section is about the *State Predicates* section, in particular this sentence
"Status" specifies the location of a Change Request in a workflow > The spec does define the oslc_cm:status property of a Change Request Resource, but there is no definition of a workflow. The introduction does explain part of the problem though in: The problem is that different CM service providers use different properties > (or even a set of properties) and different values to represent the change > request's state. Even providing access to meta data does not help because > knowing all possible state values does not reveal the semantics of a state. > My remark is that even if you don't know the semantics of each individual status value, shouldn't there be at least a way to interrogate the server about the workflow. In other words, what good is it to know a location if you don't know the coordinate system for locations? Frank.
