 * Business Logic
 * Workflow information (standard or simple) in context description
 * to be able to accelerate development another admin descriptor set-up element is used that is defined as "simple/standard". When new FW will come JibX transformin need to be changed. Markus will now change the AdminDescriptorVO to include attribute workflow. --Natasa 17:49, 4 June 2008 (CEST)


 * Change of current "release-logic", according to selected workflow (Depositor: simple: release immediately, standard: submit only)
 * Change of Action links, according to selected workflow
 * New methods and evtl. service beans for retrieving items for Moderator WS (needs filtering by context, state and org unit)
 * ContextHandler.retrieveMembers would support filters for context and item state. Org unit filtering needs to be done manually. New JibX transformations and VOs are needed (member-list.xml)


 * Other issues
 * Item lists to support paging/offset.
