Subject: RE: [ebxml-jc] ebXML XML.org Homework for JC
ebXML JC members, Please update your TC's page in the Knowledge Base ASAP (I am working on it this morning :-) ) Also, we have an opportunity to add our *brief* bios to the editorial board page. No one has updated this page yet - is this something we would like to do? Kathryn Kathryn Breininger Boeing Library Services 425-965-0182 phone -----Original Message----- From: Carol Geyer [mailto:carol.geyer@oasis-open.org] Sent: Friday, January 05, 2007 7:05 AM To: ebxml-jc@lists.oasis-open.org Cc: 'Peter Roden' Subject: [ebxml-jc] ebXML XML.org Homework for JC ebXML JC: If we are going to meet our goal of announcing the ebXML XML.org site this month, we need to get cracking. First, I created a page in the Knowledge base for each TC (see links at http://ebxml.xml.org/knowledge-base). Each TC chair (or their designate) needs to add content to their group's page BEFORE COB THURSDAY, 11 JAN. At a minimum, this content should be a brief overview that defines the TC's work in basic terms. Be sure to include links to the specifications and to the TC's public homepage on the OASIS site. You (as Editorial Board members) can edit and add Knowledge base pages at any time, but you should try to avoid including information that will become outdated too quickly (unless you *know* you're going to stay on top of it). Registered users of the site will be able to append comments to your Knowledge base pages, but they won't be able to edit the main text. In addition to the main overview page for each TC, sub-pages may be created to provide information at a more detailed level. To create a sub-page (child-page) in the Knowledge base: 1. log in 2. select "create content" from the right column of links 3. select "book page" 4. specify a title for the page; a path alias is optional (but recommended). 5. activate the pull-down menu for "Parent" and select your TC page from under the "Knowledge base" listing. 6. add your text in the "Body" field 7. if you're creating multiple sub-pages, activate the "Weight" pull-down menu to specify the order in which you want them to appear in the index 8. preview your work 9. submit Second, if your employer offers a product or service related to ebXML, please create a listing in http://ebxml.xml.org/products or http://ebxml.xml.org/services. Each listing can only be edited by its author and by the OASIS admin staff. Others may append comments (e.g. a customer may comment on how great your product is), but they can't alter the listing itself (this protects against competitors editing each other's listings.) Next, please consider adding a testimonial to http://ebxml.xml.org/testimonials. Finally, if you want to be identified as a member of the Editorial Board, please add your name and *brief* bio to http://ebxml.xml.org/editorial-board. (See http://dita.xml.org/editorial-board for an example.) On Friday, 12 Jan, I'll send a message to members of all the OASIS ebXML TCs and ask them to add their own products, services, news, testimonials, recommended resources, etc. prior to our public launch. It is very important that the Knowledge base pages be filled before then (so members easily understand what we're trying to do). In the meantime, I'll start drafting a press release to announce the site. If your company is interested in becoming a sponsor, please let me know; site sponsors will be featured and quoted in the press release. Thanks, Carol _________________________________ Carol Geyer Director of Communications OASIS +1.978.667.5115 x209 OASIS Symposium: "eBusiness and Open Standards: Understanding the Facts, Fiction, and Future" 15-18 April 2007 San Diego, CA USA http://www.oasis-open.org/events/symposium/
