Groups TODO

Groups: outside-in

To discuss:

Default group streams: Everyone (all members) Admin (admin) Registration (admin) Talk to us (admin)
how we show group storage? is it a security flaw to reveal group activity to outsiders?
How are candidates informed of updates and deliberation? Maybe group sends a notification type?
is “talk to us” just a one-way post record? or can it be a contact record like registration, but without deliberation?
form builder: what’s the simplest default for groups? a “why do you want to join our group” questions? required/optional audience (who sees it): admin members all members specific team *

Future State:

question to join (template) talk to us (template)

Criteria	Type	Optional?	Prepopulated?
title	input	No	random from emoji
description	markdown	Yes	no
avatar picture	gallery/upload	No	from gallery
background	gallery/color picker/upload	Yes	from gallery
pinned post	pin select	Yes	No
stats	system-based	No	No

stats:

admin = defines the group boundaries

Records:

post
gatherings
registration (like a post record form answers as initial post )
- comment stream can is read-write for candidate + admins
- deliberation process with due date (approve/reject/silently reject)
- persistent until deliberation

Create a group

from scratch
from private chat: whoever is on the chat automatically join group as admin, private chat is locked, with link to group
- whats the default? all admins, one admin (mutiny issue)
onboarding:
- title, description, avatar, bg color
default spaces (encrypted)
- main (everyone)
- admin (admin-only, posts and registrations)

Change of settings

group activity (log of changes)
admins change settings:
- new pinned post
- user changes (leaves, enters, becomes admin)
- new registration questions
- new name, description, etc
