Introduction

http://www.t11.org is NOT a marketing web site – It is a support system for T11 that serves as a: •Document (and draft standard) Library • Membership Roster •Personnel and Attendance History •Project Repository • Meeting Calendar • Online Balloting Scheme It’s really not a web site at all, rather an HTML- based view into a bunch of dynamic databases

•

•

Site Structure

Document & draft files not stored in the database, but in project-specific directories on a related FTP site (ftp://ftp.t11.org)

Each piece of information stored only once, in only one database – E.g. Your Name and address is only in the People DB – Elesewhere people are referenced by e-mail address

Use the same password structure throughout

•

Site Principles

All of t11.org is viewable via anonymous access

–Both database contents and files on the FTP site

Generally a password is needed to create new content in the databases and to submit new files to the FTP site

•

•

Passwords

Everybody who has attends a T11 Plenary meeting has a person record in the People database – Display your record and click on the button “Mail me my Personal password” to have your password sent to your e-mail address – That password will work for everything to do with databases The ONLY password which works with FTP access is the t11member password – System tells you that password if you need to use it

Methods of Finding Documents

Start on the main Docs” page “

Best way is by number

Search is available – Use the Search link in the left-hand blue frame – Top & bottom right hand corner links often limited to “this view” – Use one of the “complete document register” views if that’s what you want –its a multiple level view

•

Multiple-level views

Used in many places

–List of TC & TG Minutes

–People Database Views by Surname & Organization

–Complete Multi-Level Document Register
