Leader and Clerk Resources access on new.lds.org
Ever since it was in Beta, when I log in to the new.lds.org site I see a "Leader and Clerk Resources" item in the dropdown of the Tools menu. Once it switched from beta.lds.org to new.lds.org, I also see "Membership Records" and "Organizations and Callings". These seem like a great addition and make it much easier to get ward reports without having to drive into the Church or fight for computer time on Sunday. I hope they continue to expand these areas.
I am the Ward Executive Secretary, but the features in here seem to apply to many leadership positions (such as the ability to print class rolls). None of the other leaders in the ward seem to be able to see any of these, including counselors in the bishopric (our Bishop hasn't gotten around to looking, so I don't know if he would be able to or not). It would seem that at least the counselors in the bishopric should be able to access these Leader and Clerk Resources item.
I have searched and cannot seem to find where on the Wiki these leadership tools are being tracked, or where there is documentation for them. Does anyone know who should have access to these areas or where there is any documentation on the leadership tools? Is there some site on the Wiki or somewhere else that is tracking what is going to be added to this area and a rough timeline?

The are adding Councilors and Assistant Clerks with the next release.benjamincarleski wrote: I am the Ward Executive Secretary, but the features in here seem to apply to many leadership positions (such as the ability to print class rolls).

Is there a way we can tell when the new version has been released? Is there a version in the HTML I can peek at periodically, will there be new reports or features, or will the councilor just need to keep checking back periodically?
I'm assuming that because of the nature of this area, it is an internal-only project, and so I understand that there isn't much detail that needs to be released to the community. Still, it would be nice if there was a place on the Tech Wiki or the Clerk's Wiki that talked a little about it, what features were planned, and maybe had a very rough timeline.

It appears some functionality is now in place. As a bishopric counselor, I am now able to sign in to http://new.lds.org/leaders and browse the various reports, where I was not able to do so last week.ryan jones wrote:Currently it is available to Bishop, Ward Clerk and Executive Secretary.

Well, it's perhaps half in place. I'm an assistant stake clerk, and I still have no access.njcant1 wrote:It appears this functionality is now in place.
