SVN now live

The OASIS SVN installation is now up and running for use by
TCs. I am working under the assumption that those that want to use SVN know how
to do so; what I know couldn’t even fill a thimble. The SVN
implementation is tied to Kavi authentication meaning if you use your Kavi
login/password you should be able to write; the world should be able to see all
files/download them.

This storage does not replace either the Kavi document
repository or the OASIS Library at docs.oasis-open.org; it is meant to be used
for tracking working documents or code development. The policy for its use
follows and is posted on the tools.oasis-open.org page.

 

I will be making a general announcement to the Chairs list
in the next few days; in the meantime please let me know if you experience any
problems.

 

Regards,

 

Mary

 

 

********************

In an effort to accommodate Technical Committees with
multiple editors and support the use collaborative authoring/editing tools that
are not inherently part of the Kavi application, the following policy is set
forth to provide a set of guidelines related to the use of collaborative
authoring/editing/versioning system.

 

This policy includes, but is not limited to, the following:

 

    * wikis located at
http://wiki.oasis-open.org

    * files located at
http://tools.oasis-open.org/version-control

    * issues lists maintained at
http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues

 

The site:

 

    * The site and all of its contents must
be publicly viewable/readable by the general public.

    * The site and access to all of its
contents must not require a login for read-only access.

 

The TC home page:

 

    * The location (URI) and a brief
description must be posted on TC public home page (maintained by the TC Chair
and/or Secretary).

 

Access Permissions:

 

    * Write access must be provided to all TC
Members, Voting Members, Chairs and Secretaries.

    * TC Observers and the general public
must not be allowed write access.

 

TC Document Repository (wiki and version control only at
this time)

 

    * At least once a month (unless no work
has been done), and prior to each TC meeting at which one or more documents
will be discussed, a Working Draft of any/all documents must be uploaded to the
TC document repository, properly identified according to the Naming Guidelines
(links to the non-Kavi system are insufficient)

    * All TC member reviews and ballots must
be based on a Working Draft as posted to the TC document repository (links to
the non-Kavi system are insufficient)
