    * <ul>
    * <li>ENABLED if the transition is ready to proceed
    * <li>DISABLED if the transition is not ready to proceed
    * <li>DEFERED if the action associated with the transition
    * is to be deferred.  This means that the input will not be 
    * acted upon, but rather it will be saved for later execution.
    * Typically this is implemented using a CondVar wait, and the
    * blocked thread represents the defered input.  The defered
    * input is retried when the thread runs again.

    * @param Input in is the input that caused the transition.
