confused! Checkout checkin

It's late in the day, so maybe that explains why I'mconfused...

I was demo'ing with PDME2008 a while ago, and thought for sure Ihad done this, but in PDME2009, I'm confused.

I thought there was a "permissions per folder" permission for"checkin" and a "State Permissions" permission also for "checkin",(like there is for checkout) but I am not seeing it in PDME2009.

I thought I could allow checkout of a file without changing statefrom Approved. The user could then undo checkout if they changedtheir mind, or if they wanted to checkin, they would have to changestate first (to "request change" for example).

If the state change is required before checkout, and the userchanges their mind, isn't allowing the rollback permission to getstate back to approved a bit riskier?

I think I'm missing something...
