Hi Jim,

Maybe I'm stating the obvious here, but the introduction of another piece of 
state information might lead to complications when considering co-dependencies 
between the AllocStatusPartyRole and AlloCStatus.
     Extending the existing list of AllocStatus-es may not be pretty, but might 
be simpler to process, use and (perhaps more importantly) adapt to. Of course, 
we may also run the risk of rendering some of the old statuses practically 
defunct.
     I guess it'll be a compromise either way.

Kind Regards,

Prateek
