For reasons which remain only partly understood, Ralph and I have coaxed my CVS environment into working. Looking on #xmlp-eds, I don't see anyone at the moment. Don't you folks work Friday evenings? Seriously, I can try to fit in a little editing over the weekend, and some more Monday and Tues. However: this is my first time trying, and having someone look over my shoulder on the first checkin or two would probably save trouble for all. Here's about what I need to get going: * Pointer to files to be manipulated. Which of the dirs are you working in at this point, and which drafts? Does it change when Sept comes around? I note the dirs are named by date? * Quick rules for updating the files: do I change status info or titles in docs for example, or does CVS do it all? For deletions, do I leave the text and mark chg="del" or do I really delete it, etc. * Do I need to update the editors to do lists when making changes? Where does it live. You get the idea. Assume I'm clueless but willing to learn. Lacking any such pointers I may not be online much this weekend. Feel free to call the home number (1-781-860-0689) between 9AM and 9PM East Coast time Sat and Sun if at any point you've left info for me that I should look at. Again, sorry for all the delays in getting "into harness". BTW: what we learned about the CVS problem is that it seems to have to do with which Windows ID I use to log on. For various reasons, I have one for traveling (in my laptop's little WG) and one for the office that's in our work domain. Even though I run out of all the same directories and with the same copy of Cygwin, something's different. When Yves set me up I was traveling, when I tried again I was at the office. Neither Ralph nor I could figure out what was actually different or how to get the office id working, but if I'm willing to log onto my travel id when in the office (loses printing and shares, but I can deal with it), I can limp along for now. Thanks to all who helped, and to the rest of you for your patience with the delays. FYI: I'm more or less around and working, with some available time, through Wed. Then I'm out through US labor day, which is Monday.
