Notes on .6 Sharing tasks:

4 areas of work:

  1. UI
    • Getting at the ticket-URLs
      • A new dialog box, and hopefully ability to copy URLs to clipboard automatically
    • Manually subscribing to a collection in which a URL has been provided out-of-band
  2. Sharing layer
    • Some ticket integration
      • The Share object probably is where the ticket URLs get stored (?)
    • Merging
      • Look at different ways to approach this, possibly using the repository merge facility
  3. Networking layer
    • Finish transition to new library
    • Handle ticket requesting and use
    • Make sure we use ETAG "if-match" headers appropriately to prevent overwriting data
  4. Server
    • Handle ticket creation requests
    • Honor URLs with tickets

Questions:

  • Synchronous or Async/background?
    • Goal is for async
  • Do we support both ticket-based and non-ticket-based sharing?
    • Yes -- use tickets on servers that provide them
