Incentive
Geeklog does not have any current core features for individual members to develop their own trusted friends list so they for which they can share content with.
Goals
Geeklog has the idea or Groups which the site Admin can setup but users can not define their own groups or list of friends. Users would need to accept the inviation to join another members group but once joined they could view each others private content as determined by the content owner.
Sites like Facebook do this well and can be a model for what is needed. Users should be able to define multiple access control profiles so not all friends have to be give the same access to a users content.
- Develop Trusted Members interface and control/access to trusted content
- Add new GL API support for plugins to use new features
Optional Ideas
- Implement Google's OpenSocial API
- Support for APML (Attention Profile Markup Language)
Level of Difficulty
medium
This project will require someone to spend time understanding how Geeklog maintains permissions and it's permission functions. This could be implemented as a plugin but I suspect changes to the CORE SEC functions may be needed to extend the new permission checks.
UI changes will be needed to integrate these new features so a user can manager their friends list and different access profiles.
