    44== Introduction ==
    55Sunflower is a template that will be used by the Sahana Software Foundation (SSF) as a community management and coordination tool. It's development started during the [http://eden.sahanafoundation.org/wiki/Event/2012/Sahanathon Sahanathon in 2012].

     7== Stakeholders ==
     8* The Sahana Community - Since this is a community management and coordination tool, it is a means for the community to see what everyone is interested/is working on.
     9* People using Sahana Eden - They will be able to report a problem/seek assistance regarding Sahana Eden.
     10* Organisations for fundraising - It will be a tool to give stats about the work going on in Sahana Eden which would be useful in getting funds.
     11* Deployments - Information about how and where is Sahana Eden being used.

    48 === Points ===
    49 There have been suggestions that we determine a way in which to recognise top contributors - one way of doing this would be to give people "Points" (Sunflower seeds?) for completing tasks. This could work something like:
    50 * All contributors can vote on the number of points a task is worth (0-5). The value of the task is the average of those votes. If there are no votes, a task gets 1 point.
    51   * Tasks are often assigned value by the person who creates them.  I think that's a good way to establish not just their difficulty but also their priority level.  Additionally, it would be nice if the person who completes the task also indicates the amount of time they put into that task. Both factors could be recorded to create more useful information about community contributors and their contributions.
    52 * When a task is completed, the contributors that the task is assigned to gets the average value of their votes (although their own vote is ignored)
    53 * On the homepage the top contributors based on points accumulated over the past month are displayed
    54 * We can also keep historic point talleys over time
    55   * I think it's useful to think about the types of rewards that could be offered to people with lots of points.
    56   * I also think this would be a good reason to incorporaespeciallyte badges into EDEN, specifically http://openbadges.org/ which could be used as a reward mechanism as well as a way to share information about people's skills and experiences.

     244 * Tasks Lists - Using the {{{project_task}}} table, where a task can be assigned to just one person.
     245 * Deployments - Using the {{{project_project}}} table, filtered by sector name as "Deployment".
     246 * Projects - Using the {{{project_project}}} table, filtered by sector name as "Project".
     247 * Disaster Organisations - Using the {{{org}}} module.
     248* The current implementation can be found in the trunk at {{{private/templates/SSF}}} [https://github.com/flavour/eden/tree/master/private/templates/SSF here].

     250=== Planned Implementation ===
     251
     252* Goals for my(Name : Somay Jain, [https://github.com/somayjain Github Repo], IRC : Somay) implementation -

     259 * Homepage, Views -
     260  * Using Bootstrap to customize views.
     261  * Information from multiple modules on the homepage - Eg : tasks, updates, newsfeed, contributors/deployments map, etc.
     262  * Will define custom layouts and controllers for each module.
     263 * Metrics of contributions -
     264  * Include trunk commits URLs.
     265  * Include tasks logged/resolved.
     266  * Include links of wiki pages edited.
     267  * These metrics will have to be entered manually by the user as part of building his/her profile.
     268 * Pages for each module -
     269  * Use summary pages and datalists for each module mentioned above.
     270
