[Zope-CMF] DefaultWorkflow.py -- how do I extend this?

[Ken Manheimer]

If i understand your questions, i think the URL tool 'portal_url' does
some of the things you want - source in CMFDefault/URLTool.py .  Eg,

urltool = self.getToolByName('portal_url')
portal = urltool.getPortalObject()

There are a few other methods in the tool that may be useful - the class
is fairly compact, take a look at it...
