Hmm...ok..thats better, but I still think this URL stuff needs to be fixed sooner than later.
I dislike having no control over the document path.

Matt,
If you make the document public you can use the shorter
"backdoor" path:
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/4384/ebMSv3-Whitepaper.doc
Where ../committees/.. replaces the long Kavi goup path.

Subject: [chairs] Short URLs, NOW...PLEASE...!!!
When using the OASIS document template in MS word, my Document location on page one wraps because of the stupid URL path that Kavi uses. Can we get an interim solution that uses Apache's rewrite module to rewrite:
http://www.oasis-open.org/doc/ebxml-msg/4384/ebMSv3-Whitepaper.doc
to
http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/ebxml-msg/download.php/4384/ebMSv3-Whitepaper.doc
I would rather take a look at how Kavi stores documents in its repository, and make a handler to shorten the URL, resulting in URLs like:
http://www.oasis-open.org/doc/ebxml-msg/ebMSv3-Whitepaper.doc
...but the mod-rewrite solution would be quick and easy and would make my document look nicer.
