OpenFlow is based on an "activity-based" workflow model; CMF's
workflows are "entity-based". Resolving the gap was one of the
goals of the "workflow sprint" in which I participated last month
in Saarbruecken:
<http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ComponentArchitecture/Zope3Workflow>
The main goal of the sprint was to identify the workflow architecture
for Zope3, in a way which accomodates both models.
For the CMF in the immediate term: it should be possible to use OpenFlow
in conjunction with the CMF workflows, but not *as* a CMF workflow.
Based on what I leared at the sprint, it may be possible at some
point to integrate the two more directly.

The pipermail archives are at:
<http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-cmf>
From there, you can download the entire MBox, as well.
ActiveState maintains a more searchable archive, but I don't recall
the URL.
