Statutory Improvements

The following list includes some features that Rik has thought of that could improve the digital experience of an Agora, both online and offline Agorae;

• Integrating Agora agenda

  • Apart from creating Plenaries, it should also be possible to create the other types of ‘Agora events’ (Prytanium, Workshop, Progress Meeting, Break, Social Program)

  • With one of the 'Agora events' it should be able to add an description and location to it. In the description people can add the agenda and location can be both an URL or a text field for the physical location.

  • Chair should be able to highlight the current event by activating it. Finger rules can be used for the active events

• Finger Rules

  • For active events, Agora participants should be able to use finger rules for that event;

    • New topic

    • Direct comment

    • Agree

    • Disagree

    • Technical

    • Clarification

  • All Agora participants and Chair should be able to view a table with the raised fingers and Chair should be able to archive them when they have been dealt with;

    • Chair should also be able to see the list of archived fingers so it’s easier to write the minutes

    • (Dis)agreements need to be automatically archived after 1 minute

• Prytanium voting/presence

  • When creating a prytanium Chair should be able to add the items that are need voting in that prytanium, or mention that only the attendance is measured.

  • On the page of a prytanium, Chair should be able to open/close the voting

  • The delegates and envoys of Contact Antennae should be able to vote or indicate their presence

    • Only 1 delegate/envoy per local is allowed to do this

  • Chair and JC should be able to see the results of the voting/presence

• Ratifications

  • During Plenaries Chair should be able to set up Ratifications

    • Create a ratification (with name and selection which plenary it is in)

    • Make a ratification active (if it's currently happening)

  • Delegates and envoys (including EBs) are able to object to a ratification, during a time period set by Chair

    • This can be set by (de)activating the objection period

  • Once there are no objections, delegates can click to ratify the decision

  • Chair is able to see the amount of approved ratifiers

These are some extra features that Rik has thought of, but might not be technically possible (yet);

• Livestreaming on YouTube, open for all AEGEE members with their AEGEE-Europe GSuite account

  • Technical difficulty is in opening YouTube streaming only for specific accounts
