Hi Mark,

Thanks for your information - I will try it that way.

Hi,

That page suggests a slight change to the UI, but the functionality is
what already exists. So perhaps it will do what you need - though note
that as it currently exists, workflow is based on types of
Organization membership (e.g. Editor, Admin, etc - these can be
configured), not on individual users. You can see it working at
demo.ckan.org. Feel free to create Organizations, users, etc to try
out the workflow stuff.
