(j3.2006) New J3 web site

[Steve Lionel]

I had checked the old site just the other day and didn't see those 
papers. I will get them copied over. I would ask that people use the new 
site for paper submission - that way we can work out the kinks. Or 
upload to both if you don't mind.

The status will be Unknown on everything since I had no ready way of 
determining the status of old papers. At some point I may try parsing 
the minutes to at least pick up papers that passed. As for dates, I 
tried to read these from the papers, but not all of them had dates in a 
regular format. One of my background tasks is to find papers without 
dates or titles and fill those in. None of the old papers have authors 
listed yet - another thing to come.

As for "mget", etc. = you can do a select, drag and drop on multiple 
files in the "Meeting Files" interface, as well as a one-click download 
of a ZIP. I'll look into tar file creation for the "tarball" that Dan 
usually creates pre-meeting, but ZIP is pretty universal as well and 
while most tar readers can read ZIP, the reverse isn't necessarily true. 
No reason I can't do both there.

Sorry, no rsync, etc. I understand that I am asking people to change the 
way they did things for many years. My goal is to make things easier 
overall, provide more information and eliminate as much manual 
intervention as possible.

Also, David reminds me that WG5 members will need access to the "Meeting 
Files" (day folders, etc.) during joint meetings. That will happen.

I guess this raises a more immediate question - which site should be used for paper submissions for m215?  At least until they are synced, the new site paper upload should be blocked to avoid duplicate paper numbers.
