TODO

N.B. The terminology used herein is definitely a work in progress, ... along with all other aspects.

Phase 1

The following terms are purely for differentiating between certain implementation details.

Key:

"PUBLIC":   Viewable when not logged in
"USER":     Viewable when logged in
"MOD":      Viewable when logged in with sufficient permissions

NOTE: There was no user in the original Indymedia, but there will be in this version. (Saunders) Meaning users who are or are not involved with the output of a given instance?

Behaviour

• 'Federated Flow' [other name?]
  • All visible tags can be a flow, we like nature metaphors so we use flow; the only thing that would not flow is the mod (not trusted) items.
  • Emissary Template; based on 'inbox' ?
  • PUBLIC:
    • (syn. Newswire from Indymedia)
    • View
      • Curated (syn. Moderated for Indymedia)
      • Most recent N items
      • Dynamic load earlier items on request (e.g. scroll)
  • MOD:
    • (syn. Mod Flow from Indymedia)
    • Flagged items could end up here?
    • View
      • Uncurated (syn. Unmoderated from Indymedia ?)
      • (See PUBLIC)
    • Edit: Mark item(s) as "public"/"private"
      • Filters (hash tags, users, whole instances, ...)
      • Individual items/objects
• 'Stories'
  • (syn. Features from Indymedia)
  • Emissary Template(s)
    • based on ?
  • PUBLIC:
    • View
      • Filter by tag ?
      • Search ?
  • USER:
    • View
      • (See PUBLIC)
      • Save filter(s)
  • MOD:
    • View
      • (See USER)
    • Create/Edit
      • Interactive version of 'Federated Flow' to cite/reference
        • Filters
        • Checkboxes (or equivalent) per item
• 'Tagflow'
  • Emissary Template; based on ?
  • USER:
    • View
      • Tweet-deck style dashboard of parallel tag/stream views
    • Create/Edit
      • Custom streams based on filter set
        • Boolean logic

Structure

• Groups:

  • Emissary groups
  • Curators (syn. Moderators)
  • other?

  Rest looks fine, more questions :)
