interface improvements
voting rules for committees (unanimous, 2/3, majority)
moving sections under other ones, and out
voting summary
unix diff, some kind of highlighting of differences

differences in voting - time limit, secretary input

Editing a proposal after submission

proposal approval

  • approval states - committees coming one after the other

deprecated proposals - rejected

  • proposals on a section version, then the section is updated, what happens to the proposals
  • chair, when viewing a proposal, could also see the other proposals on that section version - able to merge them

Document::uniqueTitle - make sure it's checking only supersections - document titles

  • Making proposals on proposals

[edit]

Document Page

  • Should display status of proposals related to it ("6 proposals pending" links to proposals.php?docId=123)
  • Recent rejected proposals, recently approved proposals
  • Proposals with votes open should have vote summary displayed
[edit]

News Feed

  • Current: XX is authoring a new document right now.
  • Goes along with who's online - don't necessarily display what page they're on, but maybe what actions they're taking or have recently taken, if any
  • Could be document-centric (as I suppose the system itself is), displaying the most recent document to have an action taken on it, with its recent changes below, then other documents below it with their changes
  • Integrate news feed with document history - complete history of system activity
  • Better way of browsing it than MediaWiki's recent changes or history list
  • When users are deleted (depending on how we implement action recording), how will that affect the document history?
  • "since you've been gone" - use LastSuccessfulLogin, maybe have a SecondLastSuccessfulLogin
[edit]

Who's Online

  • Guests can't see who's online
  • Minimum: displayed on main page
  • Requires timeout from last page access - check everyone who still has the online flag set to true every time a page is accessed?
[edit]

Reversion to Previous Versions

  • Easy enough, but what happens to document history?
  • Just make a new version with the same text as the desired old one
  • Who can revert?
  • Only admins? Those with Edit permissions?
[edit]

Proposed Actions

  • Right now, we only support proposing changes to sections, which requires its own database table
  • How will we handle other proposed actions (e.g. adding section, reverting to previous version)
