At present there is no alternative. We removed the old "status" management from Guvnor as it, together with build selectors and categories (that don't have any role in 6.0) is all were considered a hack/bodge for lack of real workflow management within the tool.

6.0 has the skeletal infrastructure for a pluggable workflow service that we want to expand upon subsequent releases. This, when fully implemented, will provide for equivalent functionality.
