Hi all,

The University of Michigan is working on a series of small to moderate Resources tool enhancements for Sakai 11 (looking forward), and I wanted to bring them to your attention as well as for your opinions:

SAK-25709 Create option to hide/show columns in the Resources tool for a cleaner display based on user feedback we've received
SAK-25668 Show soft-deleted files in a separate "trash" section, that includes the parent folder structure
SAK-25766 Relabel button from 'Upload-Download Multiple Resources' to 'Desktop Access'

The last JIRA is the smallest, but possibly the most contentious, since it involves a change in terminology. We propose changing the Resources  'Upload-Download Multiple Resources' button to 'Desktop Access'. The thought is that this will provide a better (and shorter) label for users, as well as differentiating it from the cool new drag-n-drop UI that is available in Sakai 10 (SAK-22306).

Please let me know if you have any concerns with this relabeling - as with all UI strings in Sakai, you can always localize this string for your own institution in a properties file. Barring any objections, we'll commit this small change next week.

Thanks,
- Beth
