Publication Process

When to provide or not a PDF?
Provide the PDF when the content is allowed to be publicly accessible– E.g., We do not provide the PDF of a private Deliverable
because it will end up to be publicly accessible either in the CSG publications DB, or in Merlin
Provide the PDF in case of a presentation when it was presented in a public event– E.g., We do not publish JC or RR presentations

PDF’s Sources (1)
Official Publications and Miscellaneous Publications– IFI files (present solution)
• Solution managed by IFI
– Official URL from the publisher (if available by the time that the CSG publication entry was created)
– Research gate URL?• Rely on a service that we don’t know that will be available for ever
• We have stats– Scribd?
• Rely on a service that we don’t know that will be available for ever
• Bad idea since the content is not accessible without log in
• We have stats– ownCloud?
• No point to migrate since all past publications need to be migrated– CMS e.g., Lenya/Magnolia (old solution)
• Bad idea because links break when we move a stuff member
• The CMS is not a file storage solution– Other?
• Again a strong reason to migrate is needed
