I noticed when working with SharePoint Designer that each workflow has a config xml with tags. Does anyone know how to: 1) Associate the workflow with a specific content type? 2) Know if it is possible to associate a workflow with folders?

It is possible to associate workflows with folders. Apparently Visual Studio created Windows Workflow Foundation (WWF) development is the only tried-and-true way to create custom workflows that can be associated with different content types. There are some enterprise tools that can help a lot for creating custom workflows such as K2's Blackpoint (though I haven't had a chance to try the software).

I did find a couple of other workflow tutorials to start me off:

I didn't find any information on the config xml tags yet.
