GEO permissions #17

Closed dangeles closed 5 years ago

dangeles commented 5 years ago

the GEO permission should be one of the first questions we ask after uploading the reads, not one of the last ones.

dangeles commented 5 years ago

at this point, users should also be informed that the metadata can be altered by contacting the GEO staff at any point after submission before the repository becomes private. Alternatively, if users are submitting on their own, they should be told the metadata is in the compressed file and can be modified by expanding the file and modifying the spreadsheet manually.

What do you mean by GEO permission?

dangeles commented 5 years ago

would you like to upload your reads to the GEO automatically? Yes / No, I will submit myself. Provide me with an autofilled template,

Lioscro commented 5 years ago

I am wary that if we ask the users to make a decision right after uploading the reads, they may change their mind later, and it may be unclear to the user what Alaska is doing for them.

I feel like there should be a clear boundary between Alaska and GEO submission, and it should ultimately be up to the user what they want to do with the information, which they should be empowered to make after viewing the results from Alaska.

dangeles commented 5 years ago

hmm. OK.

How about this: A message explaining reads will not be deposited automatically without the users permission, and that this option will be offered at the end of the analysis?

Lioscro commented 5 years ago

Yeah I like that. Perhaps with a simple popup modal that the user can dismiss?

dangeles commented 5 years ago

that sounds great!
