Hi Sally,
Selection of the Open Source option when publishing problems should make the
source code viewable to anyone who is browsing Resource space and who has
has selected his/her author role. Unfortunately viewing of source across
domains does not currently work because of a bug (see
http://bugs.loncapa.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3915).
Viewing of source will work however, within a domain, and I was able to
successfully view source for problems in
/res/vcu/sshunnic/CHEM304/assignment_02/ for which source had been set to
baeavailable by using an author account I have in the VCU domain (created
when I visited VCU in January). It is important to note that the user must
have selected the author role. This may be the cause of the problem - if
the Domain Coordinator is browsing while his role is Domain Coordinator, he
should first switch to his author role.
