I've recently been doing some work on bug #26373 (i.e. that libre.fm needs a groups feature) and am getting close to completion.
After I'm finished with that, I plan to move on to bug #26371. This is to add a "friends" feature to libre.fm. This message is to ask what people want in a friends feature. So what would you like? Here are some ideas to get you started off: - Symmetric or asymmetric? Should both users need to confirm a relationship before it is displayed? Or should this just be one-way (like identi.ca - I can subscribe to Bob without Bob having to subscribe to me)? The latter doesn't rule out the former - if we allow asymmetric relationships, libre.fm could notice when the relationship goes both ways and do something special. - Should the relationship be taggable with e.g. XFN. Should I be able to describe the nature of my relationship with Bob (e.g. he's my "friend" / "kin" / "contact" / etc)? - Do we expose backlinks. Identi.ca does - it doesn't just show the list of people I subscribe to, but also shows the list of people who subscribe to me. - E-mail notifications: should I be told when someone adds me as a friend. (If we require relationships to be symmetric I'll need to be told!) Should notifications be configurable? - Anything I'm forgetting? -- Toby Inkster <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Libre-fm mailing list [email protected] http://lists.autonomo.us/mailman/listinfo/libre-fm
