I agree and support this suggestion

Yes.

Will we have a private section(password protected) on the wiki for some documents ?

Force people to have a google account and export document. My 15 years experience at SSAC shows that editing  via local word docs work.

Thanks

The intention is to help the Review Team to quickly and easily identify the contents of a document and at what stage the document is in. It will also help support version control and allow easy archiving of documents.

A good starting point for these can be the names of mailing lists for the project as such SSR-Coordination could be used for Co-Chair/Staff work and meetings. What is important is to keep a living list of these.

> Agenda
> SlideDeck
> Notes
> ActionItems
> Recordings
> Transcriptions
> Presentation
> FacetoFaceMeeting-(date)-(sub-descriptor)
> Report

> Version – VX.Y (eg V1.0) where X is for major versions and Y is for minor versions. You can extend either into multiple digits (eg V1.12). Usually starting at V1.0 for a new document although some people like to start at V0.1 when producing the first few versions from scratch and then move to V1.0 once its shared.

> Status – This field is optional and a bit of a catch all. It could be used for any of the following types of information:
> DRAFT
> FINAL
> RED-LINED
> CLEAN
