[Go-essp-tech] FW: New answer to: File paths inside wget scripts seem to vary somewhat

[Karl Taylor]

Hi Steven et al.,,

I couldn't login, but looking at one of the questions, you suggest that 
when this happens, I should "logout of PCMDI first" (in response to 
"Using an OpenID from PCMDI ...").  Since I'm at PCMDI, I wasn't sure 
how to logout of PCMDI.  Can you help?

More generally, I think this looks like a helpful page.  I can imagine, 
however, that some of the questions might be partially answered by one 
person, corrected and more fully answered by a second person, with 
possible additional information added by another.  For a user looking 
for answers, it would be helpful, at some point, to give a summary 
definitive answer, so the user wouldn't have to wade through this a 
collection of answers and corrections.  Is there a mechanism for doing that?

I also noticed that under the "unanswered" tab, there were several 
questions listed that had already received at least 1 answer.  Is that a 
bug?

Best regards,
Karl
