The best proposal we were able to come up with in the meeting was:
Remove the sharing filter options from the Publish dialog (for
Preview) so that users always push triage status to the server when
they publish. However, after they publish, desktop users can go to the
Manage share... dialog to adjust the sharing filters. This preserves
the ability to manipulate sharing filters on the desktop end, but
ensures that the server never gets a big pile of untriaged items.
I see 2 problems here:
1. it makes sense when sharing with others *not* to share the triage
status. I mean, triage is really something that's relevant to my work
status (I want to work on this "Now" doesn't mean that everyone has to
work on this "Now"... on the contrary, they'll be happy to put that
"Later"). So changing the default to always sharing this is somewhat
killing the purpose of triage existing at all (in a collaborative
environment that is), or limiting it to a sort of global "urgency
status" shared by all.
2. once I adjust my sharing filters, won't this "big pile of untriaged
items" grow all by itself eventually? i.e. aren't we simply delaying the
problem? or just making it less likely because not the default behavior?
Cheers,
