When my name is kristin dubenko and I'm the PM for the knowledge group in the create stage, our group works on two category level features the wiki and design management for twelve ten. We have three Direction issues. First, one here is generating smaller versions of design images. When new versions are uploaded, this one has slipped since twelve seven, but we're really close to completing it.

A

There's one blocking issue that came up the last few days which the enablement distribution team is helping us with, and that's allowing image magic to resize specific image types so waiting and seeing on that. Hopefully, this one will ship in twelve ten, the next one I just put a direction label on this one today, and that is having your wiki activity, show up on project group and user activity pages, it's fairly straightforward. Basically, it'll just have wiki light up your activity graph.

A

We know, there's a lot of wiki users, a lot of pageviews, and so we also want to capture people who are actually contributing and making changes in the activity. Grass.

The third one is uploading and design by copy pasting into the design tab. So in twelve nine we shipped drag-and-drop uploads in twelve ten we're gonna have copy paste, and that will be a third way of how you can upload a design into an issue. So right now you can do the old-school way, which is click to upload and select your image, and it will go up. So that's normal. You can also drag you can see. It goes to incoming so that just released.

A

So if I drop that there, it's uploading and I'm not able to simulate it, but for this release, you'd be able to select a local image, come over to the draw zone and paste it down.

A

So that's the third workflow that we're supporting this is a common copy pasting between slack and other areas, and we think it's really important to support that in the work flow. So that should be shipping in 1210.

A

The the last thing I wanted to quickly go over was the group level. Wiki, there's been a lot of work on this during the last release and we've broken down the tasks into five groupings of mbc's, the first one NBC one would be the the most lean part of wake up group level, wiki that we can ship we've already started. Working on that you can see, there's already six closed issues.

A

It would be everything that you can do on a project level wiki at the group level search and get so since searching it, have a lot more dependencies on architecture, changes with geo and some other architecture, libraries where actually you can hold off in terms of weighting those wait and see what's going on and get more of an accurate waiting on those before we add them on to the current roadmap, but big things to the team for breaking these down.

A

There's a ton of work that went into this and we're looking forward to shipping a lot of this in the coming year. That's it for the knowledge team for twelve ten. Thank you and stay safe out. There.
