      <name>Publishing the Module</name>
 	<para id="submittext">
	  To make your module or your changes to an existing module viewable by 
	  anyone on the Internet, you must publish the module in Connexions. To
	  publish a module, use the following steps:
	  
	  <list id="submitmodulelist1" type="enumerated">
	       <item>Log into Connexions.</item>
               <item>Display the Connexions workspace or workgroup in which                  
               your document resides.</item>
               <item>Display the module you want to publish.</item>
	    <item>Click on the "Publish" tab. The <cnxn target="publishfig">"Publish 
	    Module"</cnxn> screen displays. This screen contains a list of reminders 
	    for you to check before you publish the module.</item>
	    <item>Type a brief description of your work on the module in the 
	    "Description of Changes" text box.</item>
	    <item>Click <code>Publish</code>. Your work on the module is 
	    entered into the Connexions Content Commons. Once in the Content
	    Commons, anyone with Internet access can view the module.</item>
	  </list>
	</para>
	
	<figure id="publishfig">
	  <media type="image/png" src="publish.png"/>
	  <caption>The "Publish" tab.</caption>
	</figure>

	<para id="submittext2">
	  A new module would not necessarily have editing changes, so in the 
	  "Description of Changes" text box you might enter a comment like, 
	  "Created a new module".
	</para>

	<note type="note">
	The act of publishing a module is different from clicking on the 
	<code>Save</code> button in an editing session. When you save your changes,
	only you and the people who have access to your workgroup can see your 
        changes. When you publish a module, the entire world can view your work 
        on the Internet.
