- Thumbnails are no longer public. They will be visible or not dependent on the users rights over that item. This is only relevant in albums and slideshows.
- Users can create albums or slideshows of any content they have read access over without restriction.
- When the user goes to share the album/ss, the IME sets access on items that user has admin rights on; IME reports on any it could not set access on - reports that user will not be able to see it, OR that user will be able to see it because already has access to that item. In second case, we should note that we cannot guarantee it will stay accessible.
- IME will also create record in the item representing any item-level access right and the context in which it is relevant. It will use this record to manage these rights when adding/removing them. IME workflow:
1. For each item in the album/ss, check if admin over. If YES, set item-level right, and record album-right in item record.
2. If NO, query to see if the user being given privileges already has access to that item. Report on the failure, whether it will be visible or not. - Any items later added to the album should be also given all relevant item-level privileges where they can be, and the user should be notified if the item(s) cannot be shared.
- Any items that are removed, item-level access record should be removed, and item-level access should be removed if it is not present in some other context.
Short-term plan for Sprint 3:
- Rollback the thumbnail changes so that they are public again. Put changes back in when we can do the whole plan.
Use cases:
SAP & HST:
- Judy uploads files to a library. She creates an album, which she shares with Jamie, making Jamie an admin of the album. Jamie makes changes, and then is ready to let the publisher know that they are ready. Jamie then gives the publisher download rights
- She can share it with the publisher. When Jamie tries to share with the publisher she is warned that she cannot share the items in the album. Judy must give Jamie admin rights over the content in her library, or over the album itself (is this true?) so Jamie can share it.
- This seems acceptable: everyone on the team needs to be an admin of the content. Once we have groups, this will be very easy to make work.
...
- There was a big party, and 7 people each upload pictures to their personal libraries. All of their libraries are private. One of them creates an album, and shares the album with all 7 people. Each of these people will need to share their library with all 7 other people, OR they will need to give the others admin rights over any pictures they drag into their album.
