Notes on Andy's shared outline
@andysylvester sent a link to his notes outline, which I subscribed to.

There are other people tuned in here, and I wanted to be sure they saw this. Also to invite them to post a link to a public outline of their own.
Since I have more experience with this I thought I'd make some suggestions re Andy's outline.
- Give the outline a title that would be meaningful to someone who's subscribed to it. Something like "Andy's status."
- Use the + icon to make every new headline for every new idea/section. That will become important as other tools come online. The structure of a calendar-based outline is important.
Now, some comments on questions raised in Andy's outline.
- The eye icon is used for public outlines. The URL it opens is the value of the urlPublic <head> element, which is set when you make an outline public. Somehow that URL was set incorrectly.
- The lock icon does something other than what you inferred it does (your interpretation is reasonable though). It's used for instant outlines, to lock out updates. So you can read, and then when you want updates, unlock it. It'll turn green if updates are available, as will the lightning bolt in the tab.
These reports are good. I can't respond with fixes at this time, working in another part of the software.
