Yoshiki Ohshima commented on SQ-439:
------------------------------------
Having uploading a project and not being able to see it up to 5 minutes on the web site when trying to mark it "public" is awkward. At least it should show up on the page right away when logged in.

> Key: SQ-439
> URL: http://tracker.immuexa.com/browse/SQ-439
> Project: squeakland
> Type: Task
> Components: showcase
> Reporter: timothy
> Fix For: etoys 4.0 - summer 2009

> As feared, people are thinking that saving to "My Squeakland" is a private thing, not a public thing.
> There will be many who simply try it out, not expecting to have ballots sent out.
> Initially, we intended to have a "make public" checkbox in the project info or save dialog, but we weren't able to get this done for Etoys 4.
> The option really needs to be within Etoys itself. Ultimately, we'll have a "Share" box, that combines project info and "save" (which is a misnomer anyway), similar to the one in Scratch.
> We've got three solutions I can see to this problem:
> 1) change the wording of "My Squeakland" to indicate "and it'll go public" (at least for now)
> 2) add the "make public" checkbox to Etoys 4 anyway
> 3) keep everything private, requiring the user to click a "Make public" button on the website.
> Option #3 is easy to do on the server, though it's a separate step. I can make it clear in the "Thank you for your project" email, with a link in the email to make public. Only at that time would ballots be sent out.
> Thoughts?
