NEW feature - pre-population of workflow items from meeting actions

We've improved the creation of workflow items from meeting actions (i.e. what happens when you open a meeting action and click on the "Create workflow item" link):
  • The due date for the workflow item is copied over from the due date for the meeting action (provided that the action has a due date, and provided that the workflow definition asks for a due date).
  • The start date of the action becomes the start date of the workflow item (again, where applicable).
  • Provided that the text of the action is short enough, the text is used as the subject of the workflow item. Previously, the text was always put into the item's description.
