[STDS-802-11] mentor search/download enhancements



--- This message came from the IEEE 802.11 Working Group Reflector ---

Hello,

I am not sure what the procedure for this is, but I would like to
suggest that certain features be added to mentor:

- A feature to only show the most recent revision of any given
document (e.g. a tickbox option at the top)

- A feature to allow searching on the title and/or author/affiliation,
in addition to the group and/or year (I can find no way of doing this
with the current search facility, even the advanced one).  E.g. "show
me [optionally: the most recent revision of] all 2012 TGaz documents
from authors who have declared affiliation with Foo Corp"

- A feature to allow bulk downloads (e.g. through a zip) of documents
matching certain criteria.  E.g. "get the most recent revision of all
TGaz documents from 2010 and 2011 with 'features' in the title".
Failing that, (read-only) FTP access (even while not at a F2F), so
that a suitable MGET can at least be used, rather than an HTTP scraper

I feel these features would very significantly increase productivity
of 802.11 participants.

Mark
