Handling of waiting list / Respect Event.maxParticipants during Participant creation #8

Open gregorwolf opened 8 years ago

With the attribute MaxParticipants it is possible to define how many people can be hosted at the event. As cancellations can occur (Setting RSVP to N in Participant table) we should notify participants that had registered but would not yet have a space.

An adjustable waiting list policy would be a nice.

who should be notified on the waiting list? Just one person or 3, 5, 10?
how long will the notified person(s) have time to claim the free place? 6h, 12h, 24h, 2d, 5d,...
administrator should be able to move people from the waiting list directly on to the participation list
administrator should be able to delete people from the waiting list
administrator should be able to change the order of people in the waiting list

My idea was basically to automatically confirm the 1st one on the waiting list as soon as someone cancels his attendance. I think that is the same behaviour as Meetup.com handles it. I would avoid allowing adjustments by the administrator.

Logic from N to Y still needed.

When the organizer changes the number of max participants then an update of the RSVP must be executed.
