This month the uPortal steering committee responded to a request for fact-checking by CMS Watch of a draft of the uPortal chapter of their proprietary Enterprise Portals report. Thanks are due to Colin Clark, Jonathan Markow, and Andrew Petro for collaboration on that response. The Enterprise Portals Report is available from CMS Watch for a fee. The committee is presently working to refactor its responses to the CMS Watch draft into improvements to the uPortal documentation, primarily in the uPortal manual, alongside other documentation improvements. The uPortal documentation is free and publicly available.
