Answering to Roland Tanglao's questions: 1. My understanding is that everybody in the world who is on the same RCS and has bought the tool can change the outline. Is this correct? Yes, at the moment this is correct. 2. Are there any plans to enhance this tool so that I can define which members can edit and read the shared outline (similar to the "Editors Only" concept in Manila)? It would be cool if I could for example specify that sharedoutline "deal1" is only editable and readable by users 1 and 2 but not 3 and 4. I could sell a lot of Radio and SharedOutline licenses if it had such a capability. Security/access control is the next big thing with SharedOutline and we are working on it. With version 1.0 (or maybe with 1.1) of the tool you will be able define passwords for each outline, so you will be able to define who will be able to read/edit what. Another possibility will be defining which users users registered on the RCS server will be allowed to edit the outline. [Paolo Valdemarin: Paolo's Weblog] 7:54:25 AM    comment []
