Mark, Not only this, but with the work I am planing for discovery, we need events for all the workflow stages and state changes (withdrawn, submitted, etc) ...
Actually, What I really want to see that would align with the EventService more clearly is that there is no "fixed" list of Event types to choose from. But that Events either be typed by a java interface or even more simply by a simple string or URI type identifier. I think the later would allow for endusers to define new event types in their XMLUI or other addons without having to create java classes to represent them. But those are just ideas, the important need is that the EventManager or Event object "not" exert draconian rule over what Events are allowed in the system and just passes any event onto its listener... Much the way the EventService is designed to operate. So a longer term question is, how do we align the EvenManager to be more like the EventService. And the steps to do that are going to look something like 1.) "masking" EventManager behind the EventService initially as an EventListener 2.) , replacing all calls to EventManager with calls to EventService 3.) finally rewriting EventConsumers to be EventListeners and dropping EventManager altogether from the codebase.
