Uploading a workflow with a modified description also updates this field.

  <documentation>
    This is the main approval process for terms.
    The subject matter expert starts by reviewing the definition. 
    After that the stakeholders are given an opportunity to provide 
    comments on the given term. The subject matter expert is then given a 
    task to process the comments and the stewards are asked to vote for 
    term approval. The stakeholders are notified of the final outcome.
