In this followup message, I'm providing the direct link to the subsection in the Naming Directives document which shows how to select the correct (public-access) link, and I provide the URI references to the indexes for documents/email messages, ballots, calendar entries which should be used to select-copy-paste the publicly accessible URIs. I'm just now finishing a revision to the Naming Directives document which will make it clearer how to simply "select" the correct URIs rather than "transforming" the bad (password-protected) URIs. See below. Publicly Accessible URIs
http://docs.oasis-open.org/specGuidelines/ndr/namingDirectives.html#accessibleURIs This subsection provides advice on how to select the public-access URIs versus the Kavi-generated password-protected (member only, private) URIs for TC documents, archived email messages, ballots, and calender entries. In support of the OASIS TC Process rules for public visibility of all TC resources, TC Members must be careful to select an appropriate form of a URI reference to ensure that a resource is indeed publicly accessible from that URI reference. Member-only (private, password-protected) URI references created by OASIS tools must not be cited in TC mailing list messages or in any documents that may become public. Such URIs frustrate, irritate, and bewilder users who expect OASIS resources to be publicly available for viewing, and "discover" (from the private URI references) that the resources are inaccessible. How? The simplest way for TC members to select the public-access URIs is to select/copy the URI references from the public-access indexes as presented on the TC public home page, "Related links" For example, in the case of the DSS-X TC: 1) DSS-X TC public home page Use:
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/dss-x/ 2) DSS-X TC documents Use the index here :
https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=dss-x E.g.,
https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/47439/localsig-v1.0-wd01-8Nov2012.pdf 3) DSS-X TC archived email messages Use the index here :
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dss-x/ E.g.,
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/dss-x/201211/msg00026.html 4) DSS-X TC ballots Use the index here :
https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ballots.php?wg_abbrev=dss-x E.g.,
https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ballot.php?id=1965 5) DSS-X TC calender entries Use the index here :
https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/calendar.php?wg_abbrev=dss-x E.g.,

http://docs.oasis-open.org/specGuidelines/ndr/namingDirectives.html target= _blank >http://docs.oasis-open. org/specGuidelines/ndr/ namingDirectives.html The OASIS officers (I think esp. Robin Cover) seem to have invested some time into authoring "The OASIS Naming Directives document", a document that suggests some rules governing filenames and URIs for Technical Committee Work Products. It is (observing the change entries at the bottom) updated approx. on a yearly basis (but of course event driven). In there (at about 3/4 of the total length) are infos collected w.r.t. the relevant translations from restricted vs. public access links to publicly accessible entities in different areas like: * Documents, * Email messages, * TC ballot listings, * TC individual ballots and * TC calendar entries. The relevant Section is "Using Appropriate URI References" see esp. subsection "Publicly Accessible URIs".
