Proposals
Proposal 1: Admin Site Roles
• Create new role in Administration site ‘Coordinator’
• Use this to generate WebLearn coordinators• Publish list on website
Proposal 2: Resources
• Force HTML pages to be rendered in ‘standards mode’ (instead of ‘quirks mode’)– Quirks mode is for ‘old’ browsers, Netscape 4– All other pages in WebLearn are in standards
mode– ‘Home grown’ CSS may need changed
Proposal 3: Resources
• Prevent removal of ‘Read’ access in Resources– Attachments become unreadable– Assignments submission misbehaves– HTML pages become inaccessible
