An extra status

(DONE in ELI-DL "Final1")

It is not clear which status should be used for bills that have been successfully vetoed by the President: Abandoned or Closed? I feel that Abandoned corresponds to the case when the parliament itself decides not to proceed, and if it is Closed then one does not know if the project was finally successful. Maybe there should be additional status Rejected which would mean that some other body have rejected the bill.

Thanks. This deserves additionnal documentation in the model, but the intent is that "Closed" means "successfully went through and gave birth to a legislation" while "Abandonned" means it did not, for any reason.

I don't want to go too much in the legislative/legal details here, this is really a high-level view. If this property is causing too much trouble, we might as well consider removing it.

I think the property is OK, there is just a question of possible values. Your explanation of "Abandoned" is fine.
