##Chat Service Discussion ###How users can connect

  1. Public chat rooms:

    • These are geo-location based.
    • Users in the same geo-location can read and write into these rooms.
    • Users who are not part of a room's geolocation can only read from room's feed.
    • These connections are not stable and they change once the user changes his/her location. Unless it is a read only relationship.

  2. Private chat rooms:

    • These are between users who established a connection (friendship or following each other)
    • They are not restricted to a specific geolocation.
    • These connections are stable. They won't change with user's location change.

###Messages features:

  1. Each message have a geo-location associated with it.
  2. Each message that share a geo-location will construct automatically a public chat room unless it is used in a private chat room.
  3. Each message is created based on the current location of the profile owner.
  4. Each message is either private or public.

###Profile features:

  1. Profiles that share a specific geo-location can contribute with messages of that geo-location.
  2. A profile has an avatar, many messages (with different geo-location), many followers.
  3. A profile current location is dynamic.

###Profiles' subscription modes:

  1. Profiles can subscribe to a specific geo-location area.
  2. Profiles that enter a specific geo-location can enable auto subscription so they can follow up with latest news in the neighborhood.
  3. More complex subscription modes can be added later.

####Next meeting time to be determined through A Doodle vote.
