Private Group Support #259

Closed bexelbie closed 3 years ago

bexelbie commented 7 years ago

With the new FAS we need to be able to support private groups where membership in the group is not public. No use case has been suggested during brainstorming where the group's existance needs to be hidden, however membership is definitely not to be exposed.

Is this on the roadmap?

laxathom commented 7 years ago

It is implemented already and part of first major release 3.0, so yes :)

The group is only view-able by its approved members and system's admins.

bexelbie commented 7 years ago

Is the group set to prevent members from seeing each other?

laxathom commented 7 years ago

Nope. Only the group is private not membership.

bexelbie commented 7 years ago

Is it reasonable to scope this feature?

laxathom commented 7 years ago

I'm trying to understand the idea of having a private group with members that can't see each other specifically from group POV.

bexelbie commented 7 years ago

The group is used for administrative purposes and not for communication purposes. In this case we are considering have a group for people whose funding requests require extra processing for various reasons. The fact that any individual needs this is a private matter between this individual and the funders, but we want a way to track them in a reliable and durable manner. This was the suggested method.

Closing this issue as the FAS project is now archived, not actively developed, and unmaintained.

FAS was replaced in March 2021 by Fedora Accounts (https://accounts.fedoraproject.org).

If this issue is a Feature Request that you forsee might be beneficial to Fedora Accounts, please refile it against Noggin
