While figuring out how to promote the RM document to PR status, I noticed
that the process standards document was listed in all three areas (WD, PR
and REC). This could be confusing to anyone browsing the site.

I think it might be better to remove old references from the site, so a
document only can be found at its highest level. It is still possible to get
at old versions using the references in the header of the document.


Also, I thought the 'Latest Version' was supposed to have the form NAME.EXT
whereas it currently has TYPE-NAME.EXT (though the standard seems to have
lost this instruction from the Naming Convention - teach me to read changes
better) which means that this reference to a document will stop working when
a document is promoted. I'd like to suggest we use NAME.EXT. 

Cheers,
Tony.

Am cc'ing ivoadoc at ivoa.net (Marco) just in case he is not on the stdproc
list.

I agree - we should probably show the documents only in their current
category.  Also, can we create a view in which all documents in all classes
appear together?  As it is now, you have to click on each category to find
out what's there (at ivoa.net/Documents/).

The mix up on naming conventions is probably my fault, as I was confused by
that stuff from the start.  Do we think this warrants recycling the
standards document back through the process?  I would say not.  But it will
make it necessary to do some cosmetic repair on a couple of the documents
already there.

Good idea. Like:

No, the process does allow for corrections to be pushed through without
representing the document.

Cheers,
Tony.

I agree, I'll update the site (after the next week).

Agreed as well, BUT this means to correct/recreate all the .pdf .doc 
.html versions, and to change all the pages = it will take a while  ;-)

(Anyway, the reference will stop to work only if the doc is removed)

For information, the license that I am looking into for IVOA projects use is
the Common Public License:
  http://www.opensource.org/licenses/cpl.php

I have a question about point *18* which I've directed to the authors (IBM):

'Does this mean that a commercial company who makes use of a portion or all
of our code and wishes to sell that modified code, must make the source code
of their amendments available?'

Basically I wanted to make sure any code produced is freely available with
no constraint on its use except to keep copyright notices in the code.

I'll update this list when I get a response.

Cheers,
Tony.

Good idea. Like:

No, the process does allow for corrections to be pushed through without
representing the document.

Cheers,
Tony.

I agree, I'll update the site (after the next week).

Agreed as well, BUT this means to correct/recreate all the .pdf .doc 
.html versions, and to change all the pages = it will take a while  ;-)

(Anyway, the reference will stop to work only if the doc is removed)

For information, the license that I am looking into for IVOA projects use is
the Common Public License:
  http://www.opensource.org/licenses/cpl.php

I have a question about point *18* which I've directed to the authors (IBM):

'Does this mean that a commercial company who makes use of a portion or all
of our code and wishes to sell that modified code, must make the source code
of their amendments available?'

Basically I wanted to make sure any code produced is freely available with
no constraint on its use except to keep copyright notices in the code.

I'll update this list when I get a response.

Cheers,
Tony.
