Collaborative Space Plugin 4.4
Description
The Collaborative space plugin provides support to open, manage and work in Collaborative Spaces.
A Collaborative Space is a portal of services dedicated to a set of members. A collaborative Space is either public, private or secret.
All the publications of a private Collaborative Space are restricted to its members. In addition to functional services (calendar, wiki, document explorer, ...) special services are reserved to the administrators:
- members management: to add members, send invitations and validate subscriptions
- service management: to add and remove services
- settings: to customize the behavior and the look of the collaborative space
