Groups, Gruppen, Groupes, Grupos, Gruppi...

Yeah! Just ring my bell first! We can´t hardly wait to start a Hamburg-group here!!! YEEEHHAAA ;-)

YES! Cela me plaît extraordinairement!!! Merci beaucoup pour l'engagement!

PS: Est-ce que le Français devient la langue mondiale encore? ;-)

great :-)

what a gorgeous news ! :) merci beaucoup !!

Oh yes! Oh yes! You guys rock.

When?! :D
Just Kidding... take the time you need. :D
You are doing a good job!

ca c'est une bonne nouvelle

Great! I am looking forward...

good news about something i miss here ;)

Are there any features of the groups that you can let us know about or will it be a straight clone of flickr groups?

From what I have seen of ipernity so far you will do a better job of groups than flickr.

I would like to see the ability for groups to have "associations" with other groups, like users have contacts.

That sounds interesting Tux. Would you imagine them to be generated automatically via group tags or added manual by admins (like contacts)?

IMHO that must be manual. Some guys here have a little aversion against automated things. ;-) And a group-owner knows it better than a machine which group would be fit and which not even if they used the same tags - maybee _many_ groups used "germany" as a tag but that´s not a sufficient reason to put them together (exp. without no manual room to change it, urgs? ;-)

I can't see where that comes from :P Seriously though, you're right the admins will do their job much better then any machine.

What interests me though is in what way would this feature be useful for the group's members e.g. would it only serve as a series of links to related groups or maybe members could view a feed of discussions taking place in related groups.

A tree view of associated groups would be handy. As would the RSS feed of a group hierarchy.

So for instance (and I'll use Tux's example):

Brisbane
-* Brisbane Meetup
--* Brisbane Grid Project
-* Brisbane Wildlife
-* Brisbane History

etc...

I think Ipernity team could take the rss feed idea even further. What if users would be able to put groups they are members of into sets just like photos. Each sets page could show all the group's pools and discussions all on one page. This could be quite interesting and useful especially if someone in a member of multiple specialized low traffic groups.

Grin :D

Spoiled Ex-flickrites ;)

Yessssssssss!

Groups are absolutely essential. I DO NEED MY DELETEME.

Welllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

Reading this just made my day :D

Cant wait for the groups

Great (:

si, muy bien!

Attendre c'est dur ;-)

Brilliant! Looking forward to it :)

Groups make it all happen!
Great news/

Good news!
Think about ipernity-groups - it is not necessary to clone flickr-groups. Some things there are annoying

thank you !

Groups are esencials for a lot of people (and for me) Go ahead!! :)

Who organises a "Flickr-Flüchtlinge"-Gruppe ;-) ?

??? Gibt es hier dann überhaupt noch andere, die keine Flickr-Flüchtlinge sind??? :-)

;-D

great work

I can't hardly wait ; )

(:D)

Wonderful work!!

groups=good

mandatory comment groups=please don't make me do that again

That feature will go sky rocket. Only one I realy miss (compared to flickr).

So I'll stay here.

Groups. Yay!

But please do not duplicate Flickr-style groups. As someone said above, they can be quite annoying.

How about creating an admin setting for group member limits? How about an admin setting for not allowing photos added to a group unless they are tagged with whatever the admin allows? And even further, how about a setting for limiting membership to a certain geographic region (determined by the user's city/state/province etc)?

This site rocks, keep up the great service and work. I'm inviting everyone I know! :)

Yeah, this feature is a good idea. :)

cool! you guys are doing a really good job - thanks!!!

That's so awesome.

Sounds good. Great work!

And since im a ex-flickr could you, when you have the time - dont stress :)
Make some way of grouping albums ? Or even better, just make and album a collection of either pictures or albums, at the same level. That way users can nest it as they see fit.

Thanks and keep up the good work

WEEEEHEEEE!! Now this site becomes perfect!
:-))

I'm in :-)

yeah cool
groups will be fine

very soon, please :-))

we need it !!!!!

Seriuously: Is there a schedule? When can we expect to have this new feature? Don't hurry, i want it well implemented.
;)

groups would make it perfect..............

Cool voilà une bonne nouvelle...

hm ... I don't want to disturb all the euphoria for "groups" but in my opinion I'm just really happy that groups don't exist yet here.
For sure, the "groups" function can be a great feature but as seen in other famous communities (don't want to use the F*r word ;) pictures are spread around in all kind of groups and some superlarge groups with hundreds of new pictures per day without a special "theme" exists.
So I'm really afraid that this "group flooder mentality" will also settle in here (I even don't want to think of "group invitations" or "groups awards" in my pictures comments ... could become a nightmare).
Maybe just my opinion ...

Are there any timelines for the groups so far? :D

I agree with mart-n.

me too. I mean,no toys awards,no "say thank you",no "if you want an award,give an award" no "we are the biggest group",things like that.

Some equivalent of groups functionality would be nice. But I also disliked childlish behaviours in F*r groups.

groups, groups, groups, now, groups!

Finish, what you started, ipernity, and do it better than this other little picture community... flocker or whatever it's called ;)

Moi mon groupe c'est O+,
au cas ou ça pourrait accélerer qulequechose...
pensez aux développeurs en plein été aussi
admirable de travailler en plein été ici !

... just waiting... come on!
