    This one is very strange. This draft is in the correct stream (IETF) 
and group (alto) but is using the workflow of the IRTF Stream.

    alto group is the one I always use for testing from the beginning of 
the project so probably I mess something doing tests. I have fixed it by 
hand.

    The tool tries to set the stream automatically for drafts on the 
IETF stream but the only users allowed to change a draft from one stream 
to another are secretariat user.

    The only stream change that could do a WG chair is in a draft that 
does not belong to any stream. Then you could take it to the IETF stream 
and into your group with a call for adoption.

    I'll add a help message like the one in the update tags button.

    Good point. This need to be fixed.

    You don't see the intended status field cause in the IRTF workflow 
there are no transitions defined.

    Now that I fix the draft workflow you can see buttons to perform 
state transitions.

    This error is cause in the beta server we don't have the draft 
contents (neither txt, neither html). Nothing to be worried about in our 
testings.

    This is fixed by adding the manage shepherd and manage writeup links 
in the document view.

    This was an important bug [1]. First the access requirements to edit 
a draft state were to strict. You can not edit the state of this draft 
cause it doesn't belong to your WG. This is fixed and a 'first time' 
form have been introduced so you can get a draft raising a call for 
adoption.
