ReMo will provide a clear and structured framework through which Mozilla volunteers who wish to become official volunteer representatives of Mozilla in their region or area. | ReMo will provide a clear and structured framework through which Mozilla volunteers who wish to become official volunteer representatives of Mozilla in their region or area. | ||
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domesday Domesday]* is the name of the software which will run a [[Mozilla Contributor Directory|Mozilla Contributor Directory]]. (Issues specific to Mozilla's implementation are on a [[Mozilla Contributor Directory|separate page]].) | |||
=== Anti-Purpose === | |||
There are some things we are explicitly not doing as part of this project: | |||
=== Features === | |||
=== Who's In? === | |||
=== Use Cases === | |||
An initial (and likely incomplete) list of possible use cases for this system: | |||
* Answer the question "who is that?" in various systems. | |||
* Identify a community member by searching for their first name and scanning through photos in the search results. | |||
* Compile a list of people to invite to a Leadership Summit (all currently-active trusted contributors who are team/project leaders or above). | |||
* Find everyone working on a particular project. | |||
* Find all our contributors who live within 50km of Ottawa, Canada. | |||
* Generate a world map of all our contributors. | |||
=== User Tasks === | |||
* Accept invitation | |||
* Log in/out | |||
* Create profile | |||
* Edit profile | |||
* Delete profile | |||
* Reset password | |||
=== Administrator Tasks === | |||
Everything a User does plus... | |||
* Delete profile ''(at user request only)'' | |||
=== Implementation === | |||
* Python and Django, because that's what webdev are most familiar with and I want to be able to ask for their help :-) | |||
* Profile and search outputs (via templates) as HTML (with HCard), JSON (perhaps using [http://portablecontacts.net/draft-spec.html#anchor18 PortableContacts schema]), VCard, [http://code.google.com/p/webfinger/wiki/XrdFiles XRD] (for WebFinger) | |||
* LDAP vs. SQL - tricky. A directory back end means that perhaps it could one day run on top of Mozilla's LDAP authorization infrastructure, using the same database. But I know SQL much better. To be investigated. | |||
** The Mozilla LDAP also contains lots of sensitive corporate IT details that might be best to keep isolated from a public directory, for what it's worth | |||
* I plan to rip the HTML UI off from the current intranet Phonebook. | |||
* Making it actually happen is more important than the use of any one particular technology. | |||
=== Resources === | |||
* Gerv :-) I'll be writing the code. | |||
* Contributor Engagement are very interested in the project, and are offering help. | |||
* L10n are interested in the project, and can offer help. | |||
* David Boswell has offered to help. | |||
* Design Needs | |||
** We'll need someone to help design form pages, maybe just the main profile page that allows you to adjust your privacy settings as seen in the [http://www.gerv.net/usability/domesday/ Privacy UI Demo]. | |||
