Introduction

A small glossary for the used terms can be found under Miscellaneous.
Please enter all comments concerning the use cases on the discussion page.

Scenario

• A note pad should be like an electronic post-it for an album where the user can save private notes.
• It should be about the size of half a page (similar to a text editor).
• As a note pad is like a text document, editing the not pad means editing the whole text.
• Editing an album and editing the related note pad are two separate use cases.
• The note pad should only be visible for the owner of the album. It can be edited as long as it exists.
• When creating an album, its related note pad will be automatically created by the system. Because of this, there is not use case "Create note pad". As for deleting a note pad, that will also happen automatically when deleting the related album. That includes, that it is not possible to delete an note pad by itself (but it is possible to delete all content (text) of the note pad during the use case "edit note pad").
• When releasing/withdrawing the album, the note pad will not be released and is still visible (and editable) for the owner.

Sharing an album

• When sharing an album, the owner can decide if he wants to share the note pad, too.
• When he shares it, the shared users can read and write it (independent from the state of the album). When not, the other users can not see it anyway.
• Its only possible to share a note pad when the related album will be shared, too. A note pad can not be shared without its album.

Open points

• Will the note pad be handled like a component of the album?

Not possible, containers are aggregations and they can not have components.--Natasa 07:39, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

• Will the note pad be handled like detailed metadata of the album (similar the the description)?
• As discussed in a meeting with Natasa, Michael, Ulla and me, the note pad can be a separate item (which always stays in the state pending) which will be related to the album. --Kristina 14:23, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
