- Topic: wiki update
- 13:32:57 [Sharron]
- Shawn: Did anyone notice that W3C systems changed the wiki. In my case, my preferences changed. It dropped me from the watch list. If you have pages on watch, you might want to look at that. Any questions about how that works?
- 13:33:18 [Sharron]
- ...I would encourage everyone to put pages that interest you on the watch list.
- 13:33:26 [Zakim]
- +Andrew
- 13:33:37 [Sharron]
- ...also, the visual design was a bit different.
- 13:34:01 [yatil]
- Blockquote CSS is missing which is very unfortunateā¦
- 13:34:11 [Sharron]
- AnnaBelle: I noticed the change and mostly since it was unexpected, I was a bit disoriented. But now I am thinking it may actually be a bit easier to read.
- 13:34:30 [Sharron]
- Shawn: We may tweek the CSS
- 13:34:36 [Sharron]
- Paul: The text editor changed
- 13:34:59 [Sharron]
- Shawn: Yes, I am going to look at how to make it work a bit better for us.
- 13:35:10 [Sharron]
- ...let me know if anyone wants to help with that
