Proposal: PyLadies Members Portal

[lorenanicole]

Proposal

Build a PyLadies membership portal to manage membership in a way the is not only GDPR compliant but allows member management in one of 7 localized languages.

Members Portal 1.0

At a minimum the member portal should allow members to:

• allow membership registration
• change (e.g. between types, cancel) their membership status
• update and review membership status
• control notifications from PyLadies
• fill out membership bio

At a minimum the member portal should allow organizers to:

• download data about their chapter members

At a minimum the member portal should allow admins to:

• download data about all chapter members
• update organizers for a chapter
• update chapters

At a minimum the member portal should be localized to a minimum of 7 languages: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Chinese/Mandarin (simplified), Chinese/Mandarin (traditional), and Arabic.

Additional features that are a nice to have but not immediate:

• see events in their local chapter
• manage communications with local chapter

Hi @lorenanicole - I'd love to help on this. I can spin up prototypes pretty easily. I'm most comfortable with postgress for the DB, but we could use something else.

Looks like the two packages that have the best I18N support are django cms and Wagtail -- do you have a preference? Feels like django-cms is further along, but I'd have to spin up both to really compare. We could do that and have some translators and content makers interact, if you'd like.

Additionally, did a little digging around GDPR and found these:

• django-letsagree
• django-gdpr-assist
• django-privacy-mgmt

Yah I think Django is best way to go too heh!

I'm going to play with these two this afternoon:

• django-cms + cookiecutter
• wagtail + cookiecutter
