2.4.1 Essential items

To enter or update information in your personal details page,

select  Options    Details   in order to fill in your personal information.

This brings up the 'Edit Details ...' form. It includes input fields for

  • Full name -- we recommend the
    • <first name> <initials | nick name> <last name>

    style, even if you have chosen your last name as your user name. The full name may contain accents.

  • Organization -- enter the name of the company, organization, university etc. you are affiliated with (or its widely known acronym).
  • BSCW will convert the information given in these fields to

      <user name> (<full name>, <organization>)

    wherever appropriate. If you do not complete the field 'Full name', the entry reads:

      <user name> <<email address>>

  • Primary email address -- by default, BSCW enters the email address with which you registered.
    If you use additional email addresses or if your email address changes, please enter them as secondary addresses. For each of them, you will have to go through a process similar to your authentication.
    Specify the address to be used by BSCW for sending email to you (your primary email address).
