This is an extension to Laravel 5 to help implement a publishing workflow that involves multiple roles and multiple stages before publishing.

It's more or less a self serving effort for investigatively.com and there are no guarantees as yet of extending it to meet the disparate publishing requirements that are definitely existing somewhere out there.

With that said, fork and customise at will.

• Laravel MongoDB
• Laravel Stapler
• ...of course Laravel 5
