Well, in WfMC you cannot just trigger a transition. Instead you have to finish
all the workitems. In SchoolTool I keep track of all the workitems in a list.
Then I just finish them. Note that you only need to keep track of workitems
that require manual interaction.
All this can be seen from the zope.wfmc/README.txt file. I had to read the
file about 3 or 4 times before I knew what was going on. But it is very
complete.

I think the Zope 3 Wiki would be a good place.
