I see that the FPL FIXwiki at http://fixwiki.fixprotocol.org/ is a useful new way of accessing the FIX specification.

But I don’t see how I can add my own notes and comments to FIXwiki pages.

How do I do that?

Hello John,

Anybody can look at FIXwiki pages without logging into FIXwiki but to add your own notes and comments you need to have a FIXwiki account and log in.

Any FPL member can apply for an account by going to FIXwiki (http://fixwiki.fixprotocol.org/), clicking on the log in link (top right of page), then clicking on the “request one” link of the Login page.

Once you have your account, you will be able to log in to FIXwiki.

When you are logged into FIXwiki you will see an “edit” link beside the Notes section of any FIXwiki page. Click on that and you will be able to contribute your own notes and comments to the page in exactly the same way that you can on other wikis such as Wikipedia (http://wikipedia.org/). (There is an Editing Help link on each edit page).

I hope this helps.

Best regards,

John

That was very helpful

Thanks John for your extremely rapid reply (is this some kind of record?).

Best wishes
