Josh, please get with Tracy/Nel and just get rid of the “file access” doc directory today. Move anything relevant into the documentation section of the staff site, and delete anything that is stale. It just isn’t a big deal to get this cleaned up now.

Problem solved.

Ken

Pat,

Sorry I misunderstood.

Addressing your question about why the "docs" section doesn't match the documentation section on the staff website, my answer is that the mismatch here is partially because nobody is managing the contents of the file access directories. I'm working on implementing a new filesharing system that will make managing content much easier. I really want to see those directories cleaned up. As well, there are probably multiple versions of the documentation available because there may still be a need for those older versions to be accessible, but I cannot say for certain.

Josh.

> Josh,

> That wasn't my point. File Access is fine. When Tari asked about having difficulty downloading a file (which happened to contain a user manual), I mistakenly went right to file access instead of documentation. I might have realized my mistake except I found GEMS user manuals there and assumed I had found the right place. My question was why do these two directories each have a different subset of GEMS users manuals? File access/docs/ has 1-11 and three versions of 1-18 while Documentation/GEMS/User Guides has 1-11, 1-17, and 1-18. One possible answer is that one place contains works in process while the other is released manuals, but I couldn't tell for sure. No big deal. Just wondering.
