I've been playing around with this as well. Any chance to get an idea of a
workflow to be build with this? One way I could imagine doing is by trying
to build our workflow into ITSM 2.0. That would then probably translate to:

- Create change
- Add WO: build the change
- Add WO for approval: one WO for each CAB member that needs to approve
- Add rest of the WO's describing the work to be done
- Add PIR WO
- Add condition: if WO status of the build change WO is closed, set Change
state to Pending Approval, and set WO state of approval WOs to ready (?)
- Add condition: if Change state of all WO's for approval are set to
accepted, Change state should be set to approved.
- Add condition: as soon as one of the other WO's changes state to "in
progress" set the change to "in progress".
- Add condition: as soon as all WO's change to "closed", set Change state to
Pending PIR
- Add condition: as soon as Pending PIR WO has been closed, the Change can
be closed too.

However, there are some issues here:
- I hope the complete logic can be saved in templates as well :-)
- The approval WO's are a bit... uneasy. When I can already set the CAB, it
would be cool if there was some mechanism to automagically request approval
from each CAB member.
- Use Ready or Accepted for the WOs?
- Not sure how I can do a successful close/failed/... depending on the PIR.

BUT, then again, maybe I've totally overseen something here. I'd really be
happy if somebody could give an example of such a workflow. And I guess, I'm
not the only one :-)

Thanks,
Arthur
