Ability to manage wg document page more manually

Open mirjak opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Description

It would be nice if chairs could add drafts to "Related Internet-Drafts" category manually even if the wg name is not in the draft name; or vice versa remove a document that is not related but for other reason seem to match with wg name.

I just saw that documents have an "manage adoption" button but that only covers wg doc and not related drafts. Also this button is hard to find and didn't feel self-explanatory for me...

manage adoption is not how to add documents to Related Internet-Drafts.

That's done through the working group's community list, which is done with the [Manage document list] button on the group's documents page.

Any related draft can be added to the Related Internet-Drafts category here: image

If you are looking to do this from document pages or from search results we could try to build UI similar to the current [track] and [untrack] elements that add/remove the document from your personal community list, but for each group that the logged in user was chair of, but that would likely get very busy.

And there's not currently any way to exclude a specific document, particularly one that matches the working group name ruleset. The rules are all additive (by the original design in rfc6293). It would be a substantive change to add subtractive rules.

@mirjak Given the above feedback, is there anything still to do here?

No, it's fine I think. Thanks!
