workbench_scheduler 7.x-2.0-rc1

This release addresses bugs and adds a few requested features.

Major features of 2.0 include:

• A more workbench centered approach. Schedules are based on transitions instead of states. Think of this workflow: "When node is approved and schedule date has expired, set node to published."
• Option to allow schedules to run on published revisions even if they're not the current revision.
• Hooks that allow developers to override default cron behavior.
• Option to choose the date format.
• Reworked permissions which removes “Set workbench schedule” permission and adds a few new permissions. This is a pretty big change so for more information please see issue: #2718725
• A new hook that allows granular schedule access controls.
• A new “Scheduled Content” tab on the workbench page.
• Ability to add multiple schedules per node.

Note about Upgrade from 1.x

In order to ensure that existing schedules still work the upgrade process is pretty aggressive about creating new transitions and schedules. Therefore it’s highly recommended that you test the upgrade and review your schedules before deploying the upgrade to production.
