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
