Motivation
To engage site visitors to participate in the community, we should give them a way to comment on audio, video, photo content on the site. In this way, they can give feedback on what they like and what they don't like. This allows for more qualitative commentary, as opposed to a rating which is purely quantitative.We can also have a portlet which shows which content is being "most talked about".
Proposal
The built-in commenting feature of Plone is okay, but has some drawbacks. We propose to use a Zope3-based approach which allows for more flexibility.
Implement a tool to allow for commenting on any audio or video file.
Optionally, one should be able to enable moderation of comments.
Allow for threaded discussions. Comment on a comment.
It should also implement PloneCaptcha and Akismet spam prevention features (these are already in the TODO for easycommenting). Quintagroup also has a Captcha tool called qPloneCaptchas.
Easycommenting is currently being plipped for inclusion into Plone 3.0 (PLIP #179) so it might be worthwhile to use it.
