Functionality Questions

OERca2 - functionality questions The following issues/questions came up during the August 28, 2009 meeting discussing the OERca2 interface and interactions.

Access, Roles, Users


 * different orgs/different objects (separate?)
 * user roles -- read only access to modules? access to what? how do we set this up?
 * define user preferences
 * crowdsourcing: do we keep access to comments separate?

Workflow


 * do we allow for multiple workflows
 * state machines for the various workflows?
 * how to distinguish documents (edited vs. edited+cleared)

Metadata


 * show/allow metadata mapping for users
 * export the metadata sets you create (import as well)
 * cloning metadata (add this term somewhere)
 * keyword suggestions - what would this look like?

Misc


 * email in comments to objects (must you be logged in?)
 * 3 options for export (download original, download recomp, download recomp + images?)
 * permissions -- how to integrate the permission process
