: (list, mandatory, once)
: List contains: pending, released, withdrawn
:: '''pending:''' The album is created, can be edited by the user himself and can be shared with other selected users.
:: '''released:''' The album is visible for all Faces users and can not be edited any more.
:: '''withdrawn:''' The album is only visible for users who know the exact URL.
 
== Sharing of an album ==
 
'''Share an album'''
* Each user can share an own pending album with other users (for the states released and withdrawn sharing an album does not make sense).
* Sharing an album means that next to the owner of the album also further selected users can add and remove pictures from it and can edit the metadata of the album. But they can not release, delete or withdraw the album.
* Each shared user of the album can create himself one ore several private note pad related to the album. Further on, a shared note pad for all shared users will automatically be created.
* For sharing an album, the owner has to select one or more users.
 
'''Selecting an shared user'''
# The owner of the album has to enter a valid e-mail address of the user he wants to share the album.
# The selected user will get a notification via e-mail.
 
'''Activation of the shared user role'''
# The selected user has to confirm the sharing of the album by following a link within the e-mail.
#* When the user is already logged in he comes to a confirmation page within Faces.
#* When the user is not logged in, he first has to log on to the system and will then come to the confirmation page.
# When the confirmation is finished the user gets the rights as collaborator of the shared album.  


== Additional information ==
'''Delete a shared album'''
Further information about an album can be found in the [[Faces_Application_Profile_Album#Aim_and_Scope|Faces Application Profile Album]].
* It can happen that the owner wants to delete an shared album. Therefore he first has to unshare the album with all shared users before he can delete the album.  


== Further Development ==
'''Working with a shared album'''
* It could happen that more users are adding and removing pictures from the same album at the same time. In this situation, each step only needs a second.
*# The system always saves the latest version. If a user tries to remove a picture which has been previously removed by another user, the FW will return an exception which can be handled as an error message.
*# If another user wants to add a member to an older version of an album, then we have to provide the information that the album has been changed in a meantime by another user and /or ask the user to reload the latest version of the album.


==== Identified Use Cases ====
'''Versioning of an album'''
* All shared users (incl. the owner) of an album will have the possibility to view the technical event log of the album.
* To save also the intellectual changes of an album, all users are recommended to comment their changes in the shared note pad.


1. Extension of UC_FAC_AM_09 Export album -->'''R3'''
'''Unshare an album'''
:* Export technical metadata
* The owner of an album is possible to delete a shared user of his album. That action includes that the prior shared user will get a notification by the system. During this process, a copy of the album will be created and saved as private album for the unshared album. So all existing note pads will have a new album they are corresponding to.
* It is not possible that shared users (after they have confirmed their participation) delete themselves from the list of shared users. If they really want this, they have to contact the owner, who can remove them.


2. UC_FAC_AM_ Sharing album --> '''R3.5'''
== e-Mails ==
: Scenario:
:* The user wants to share his submitted album with other Faces users. Sharing an albums means, that other users can add and remove pictures from the album. Further on, based on a separate permission per album, the users can also edit the note pad for the album. But they can not edit the album (change the metadata), release, delete or withdraw it.
:* When sharing an album with other users, this users (name and affiliated organization) will automatically be pre-filled as authors of the album. This data can be changed manually by the owner till the album is released.
:* Shared albums are displayed in the owners workspace as shared (which includes a list of users with whom the album is shared).
:* In the workspaces of the users who share the album, they are displayed, too, as shared. This user can see all other users of this album and the owner.
:* When a shared album is released by his owner, it is still visible in the workspaces of all "shares users" marked with the suitable information (like listed above).
: Open points:
:* What happens when two users wants to change the album at the same time?
:: The album has to be locked when one of it's users:
::# selects the shared album as active
::# views the shared album (because here he can remove pictures)


==== Invitation for Sharing an Album ====
* Subject: Invitation for sharing an album within FACES
* "User X invited you for sharing his album Y."
* ''Free text from the user''
* " How to follow this invitation?
: If you already have an FACES account, please follow ''this link'' (link to confirm-share, evtl. via log-in).
: If you do not have yet an FACES account you first have to apply for an account ''here'' (link to Faces request account form). When your account has been accepted, please confirm the sharing of the album ''here'' (link to confirm-share, evtl. via log-in)."


==== Further Ideas ====  
==== Notification for Sharing an Album with a user group ====
* Subject: Your user group XY is sharing an album within FACES
* "User X is sharing his album Y with your user group XY."
* ''Free text from the user''
* " If you don't want to be in this user group, please contact the creator of the user group (<e-mail of the creator>)"


1. Note pad --> '''R3.5'''
==== Information for Unsharing an Album ====
:* Note pad for each album where the user can save private notes (only visible for himself) in the size of about half a page.
* Subject: Unsharing of a FACES album
:* When sharing the album, the user can decide, if he wants to share the note pad, too. When he shares it, the other users can read and write it. When not, the other users can not see it anyway.
* "User x has deleted you from the list of shared users for his album Y. For details, please contact the user personal."
:* Should be viewable for the owner also after the album has been released.
:* Open points:
::* Will the note pad be handled like a component of the album? Or like detailed metadata (similar the the description)?
::* Are albums (containers) able to have a component?


2. [[Faces_Album_Management#UC_FAC_AM_03_Add_picture_to_album|UC_FAC_AM_03 Add picture to album]]
== User Groups ==
:* With this UC the user cannot add pictures to one of his albums, but to exactly one album only. Many web tools (flickr) do it differently, i.e. allowing a user to select many "tags" (=albums) in one step. --[[User:Inga|Inga]] 13:57, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
* To create a user group, the user needs the priviledges (via the role User-Group Admin).
* The creator of a user group is not automatically a member of the user group.
* Each user can see following user groups:
** the ones he created
** the ones he is a member of
* User groups can be created in a sort of Admin Interface plug in for Faces.
* For the creation of a user group the creator must know the user names of the required users (there won't be displayed a list with all users).
* As user groups can also be created based on all members of one or several organizational units, it is not always possible to view all users of an user group.
* Some specification about user groups can be found under [[ PubMan_Func_Spec_User_Management#UC_PM_UM_10_create_user_group| PubMan Func Spec User Management]]

The use case ends successfully.

Actors Involved

  • Account user

Remarks

  • This use case consists of two steps:
    1. "submit for sharing album" use case that would submit the album and will automatically create a shared notepad
    2. "add shared users to an album"

Discussion

UC_FAC_AM_10 Confirm shared user[edit]

Status/Schedule

  • Status: in design
  • Schedule: ???

Motivation

  • An album owner offers another user the possibility to share one of his albums. Now the user wants to confirm this sharing.

  • The selected user got an e-mail invitation to share an album.

Steps

  1. The selected user chooses to confirm the sharing of the album by following the link provided in the e-mail.
  2. The user already has a Faces account. Extension point: log on to the system
    2.1 If the user is not logged on to the Faces system, include UC_FAC_UM_01 Log on to the system.
  3. The system displays a target page that contains a button to confirm the sharing explicitly.
  4. The user confirms the sharing.
  5. The system updates the properties of the album: it adds the user name to the provided e-mail address and gives the user the right priviledges for sharing the album (the confirmation can make internal log-in as administrator and make a corresponding grant to the invited person (current user handle, granting of a collaborator role for Album X to User A)).

  3. The user deletes one or more of the shared or invited users or user groups.
  4. The system updates the shared and invited users and user groups of the album, sends all deleted shared users and user groups a notification via e-mail and displays a message (MSG_FAC_AM_10). Further on, the system logs the leaving of the shared user/user group in the shared note pad. Additionally the system creates a copy of the current version of the album and stores this copy as pending album for each unshared user. If the user has one or several private note pads linked to the originally shared album, this note pads will be deleted from the shared album and attached to the new created album of the user. The use case ends successfully.

Actors Involved

  • Account user

Discussion

UC_FAC_AM_12 Copy album content[edit]

Sharing of an album[edit]

Share an album

  • Each user can share an own pending album with other users (for the states released and withdrawn sharing an album does not make sense).
  • Sharing an album means that next to the owner of the album also further selected users can add and remove pictures from it and can edit the metadata of the album. But they can not release, delete or withdraw the album.
  • Each shared user of the album can create himself one ore several private note pad related to the album. Further on, a shared note pad for all shared users will automatically be created.
  • For sharing an album, the owner has to select one or more users.

Selecting an shared user

  1. The owner of the album has to enter a valid e-mail address of the user he wants to share the album.
  2. The selected user will get a notification via e-mail.

Activation of the shared user role

  1. The selected user has to confirm the sharing of the album by following a link within the e-mail.
    • When the user is already logged in he comes to a confirmation page within Faces.
    • When the user is not logged in, he first has to log on to the system and will then come to the confirmation page.
  2. When the confirmation is finished the user gets the rights as collaborator of the shared album.

Delete a shared album

  • It can happen that the owner wants to delete an shared album. Therefore he first has to unshare the album with all shared users before he can delete the album.

Working with a shared album

  • It could happen that more users are adding and removing pictures from the same album at the same time. In this situation, each step only needs a second.
    1. The system always saves the latest version. If a user tries to remove a picture which has been previously removed by another user, the FW will return an exception which can be handled as an error message.
    2. If another user wants to add a member to an older version of an album, then we have to provide the information that the album has been changed in a meantime by another user and /or ask the user to reload the latest version of the album.

Versioning of an album

  • All shared users (incl. the owner) of an album will have the possibility to view the technical event log of the album.
  • To save also the intellectual changes of an album, all users are recommended to comment their changes in the shared note pad.

Unshare an album

  • The owner of an album is possible to delete a shared user of his album. That action includes that the prior shared user will get a notification by the system. During this process, a copy of the album will be created and saved as private album for the unshared album. So all existing note pads will have a new album they are corresponding to.
  • It is not possible that shared users (after they have confirmed their participation) delete themselves from the list of shared users. If they really want this, they have to contact the owner, who can remove them.

e-Mails[edit]

Invitation for Sharing an Album[edit]

  • Subject: Invitation for sharing an album within FACES
  • "User X invited you for sharing his album Y."
  • Free text from the user
  • " How to follow this invitation?
If you already have an FACES account, please follow this link (link to confirm-share, evtl. via log-in).
If you do not have yet an FACES account you first have to apply for an account here (link to Faces request account form). When your account has been accepted, please confirm the sharing of the album here (link to confirm-share, evtl. via log-in)."

  • "User X is sharing his album Y with your user group XY."
  • Free text from the user
  • " If you don't want to be in this user group, please contact the creator of the user group (<e-mail of the creator>)"

Information for Unsharing an Album[edit]

  • Subject: Unsharing of a FACES album
  • "User x has deleted you from the list of shared users for his album Y. For details, please contact the user personal."

User Groups[edit]

  • To create a user group, the user needs the priviledges (via the role User-Group Admin).
  • The creator of a user group is not automatically a member of the user group.
  • Each user can see following user groups:
    • the ones he created
    • the ones he is a member of
  • User groups can be created in a sort of Admin Interface plug in for Faces.
  • For the creation of a user group the creator must know the user names of the required users (there won't be displayed a list with all users).
  • As user groups can also be created based on all members of one or several organizational units, it is not always possible to view all users of an user group.
  • Some specification about user groups can be found under PubMan Func Spec User Management

Further Development[edit]

1. Controlled Vocabulary

  • perhaps in a later step, the adding of authors (with their corresponding affiliations) can be based on normed files like in PubMan --> CONE integration
