Subject: Idea for improving swamp overview page

Hi all,
I just took a look at the "home page" layout in 1.5.5 and I must say
that moving the workflows from the side menu into the "content" section
of the page is a good idea as it will allow for installations with lots
of workflows to be more user friendly. However, I would like it if the
workflows could be grouped - maybe in a tree structure, where the
overview page would only show the top level groups (or workflows, if
they are at the top level) and allow for the user to expand those groups
(tree items). A rough example of what we aim to accomplish with swamp
(and why such a grouping would be nice):
- Development (Group)
- Meeting (Workflow)
- Build/Package version (Workflow)
- ...
- Testing (Group)
- Deploy onto Test-Servers (Workflow)
- ...
- Product (Group)
- Evaluation (Group)
- Generate Evaluation-Key (Workflow)
- Mail Demo CD (Workflow)
- Order (Group)
- Create Order (Workflow)
- Generate Product-Key (Workflow)
- Support (Group)
- Handle incident (Workflow)
- ...
I think that the group membership should be a new element in the
workflow definitions - and the tree be generated dynamically from that.
It might also make sense to allow for multiple group definitions in
order to allow workflows to appear in different locations of the tree.
Also: I've quickly searched the mailing list but did not find anything
about i18n of workflows - are there any plans to add support for
languages to workflows (so that the workflow can "render/run" in the
language of the viewer/workflow starter)?
