Collaboration / ezapprove issue: Finished collaboration items still show up

Hi,

We run a setup using a post-publish workflow with ezapprove. The problem is sometimes Collaboration Items still show up when they were acted upon (approved or rejected) on the collaboration summary page and there's no way in the interface to delete them.

I took a look at
design/admin2/templates/collaboration/view/summary.tpl

The items there get counted and fetched using

latest_item_count=fetch("collaboration","item_count",hash("is_active",true(),"parent_group_id",$parent_group_id))}

and

{include uri="design:collaboration/item_list.tpl" item_list=fetch( "collaboration", "item_list", hash( "limit", $item_limit, "offset", $offset, "is_active", true()) )}
IMHO using "is_active" does not retrieve the right items in a setting with multiple users and different roles. I could not exactly reproduce which items get fetched and which not using "is_active" but here's how I fixed it:

latest_item_count=fetch("collaboration","item_count",hash("status", array(1), "parent_group_id",$parent_group_id))}

{include uri="design:collaboration/item_list.tpl" item_list=fetch( "collaboration", "item_list", hash( "limit", $item_limit, "offset", $offset, "status", array(1) ) )}

So we use "status" in "ezcollab_item" instead of "is_active" to retrieve active items and this is the way at least we expected it to behave.

Could anyone verify if this is bug or feature ;-) ?

Kind regards,
Walter
