Subject: FW: [chairs] Enhancements to Kavi upload notifications and TC wikis
|
FYI… From: Mary McRae
[mailto:marypmcrae@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Mary McRae NOTE: Anyone with the role of “Chair” or “Secretary” is
automatically subscribed to this group. Feel free to pass along this
information to your fellow TC participants. There has been a small, but significant improvement in the way
upload notifications are written, which you may or may not have noticed. Kudos
go to Neil Schelly, the OASIS Systems Administrator, for figuring out how to
intercept the email that is, by default, sent to a Technical Committee list
each time a document is uploaded. That notification has always used the
“members only” URI – the version that requires your login/password before you
are given access. That message is now intercepted and the URIs are replaced
with the publicly accessible URI – meaning anyone reading the message in the
email archives will be able to follow the link and not be denied access. Yes, there are any number of possible approaches, all of
which would have required a greater investment of time and/or resulted in
breaking rules around other types of groups that are also hosted in the Kavi
system. This approach addresses one of the major problems in that someone finds
the upload notification message but is unable to actually access the asset,
giving the impression that some of the TC’s work is hidden. I would encourage all TC members to take note of that
message and whenever referring to the particular document, make use of the
publicly accessible URI. Additionally, the ability to author wiki pages using HTML
has recently been added. Use “#format html” on the first line and enter (or
paste) raw HTML markup. Again, thanks to Neil for helping us improve the services we
offer to our committees. There are more to come. Mary ___________________________________________________________ Mary P McRae Director, Technical Committee
