  4. Not possible to create a user collection - You can create watchlist
  5. Not possible to rate - rating is working but its not recording in any where.

Production challenges

  1. Off-line output as PDF. we need it as ODT also (so we can make small changes, add credits etc)
  2. Off-line as wiki off-line. we need to be able to access all open content through this. how to do (large videos? non open content). basically to avoid the need for making another 'resource folder' and giving for use with text book. we need to be able to download the entire content on the off-line
  3. on-line as wiki. get reports / notifications by email of changes being made
    1. a user can create a watchlist of pages, any change here will be mailed to user (page trustee)
    2. if a resource group needs to see notifications, then create a dummy/alias id and any change in pages watch listed can send a mail to the mail group
    3. can the watchlist be on a category? or a user?
    4. recent changes - and this is not being notified. list of such edits including new pages should go to some id (orphan)
  4. implicit and explicit links - resolved (references at end for all implicit links)
