Can attached files be viewed in a separate browser window instead of just downloading?
Minor usability issue but one that can make life better for people behind firewalls or with slow internet. Currently, files attached to documents (e.g., standards workflow schematic attached to Standards WG text) simply download. Am I missing a markdown code to get them to open in a new browser window instead?
With respect to download speeds it doesn't really matter if you're downloading the file or viewing it directly in your browser but I agree the usability aspect of being able to see it in the browser does make it easier to view. How were these files uploaded in the first place though? I see them in
https://openmodelingfoundation.github.io/governance/working-groups/ -> https://github.com/openmodelingfoundation/openmodelingfoundation.github.io/files/6481459/standards_workflow.pdf
and
https://openmodelingfoundation.github.io/governance/charter/ -> https://github.com/openmodelingfoundation/openmodelingfoundation.github.io/files/6462528/OMF_org.pdf
but don't see where / how they were added to the repository...

I added some commits that open the diagram pdf files to a google docs preview in a new tab in the most recent commits

That's really nice. It will make it easier for people to see
Those mysterious floating files should probably be tracked. Default behavior for static files in hugo should be to open in a new tab e.g. https://www.openmodelingfoundation.org/about/history/#planning-workshops so we'd be able to get rid of the google redirect
Also with some relevance to openmodelingfoundation/openmodelingfoundation.github.io#431, we should decide on where to keep static files (static/<section> vs. in with content/<section>)
