= Analysis =
== Overview ==
Keeps forum healthy.
== Task requirements ==
Since migration there are no moderators left (or trac said so). Identify the issue and add moderators if needed.
 * Ask someone else to post a forum topic
 * Try to moderate it (edit it, then delete it) using your own account
 * If needed, edit the group moderators and add them moderating permissins
 * Create a forum Recycle Bin for moving locked topics there.
 * Review forum regularly and clean it if needed.
 * Research using RSS in forums and add this feature if possible
== Task result ==
Maintained forum.
== Implementation idea ==
 * Ask pac to give you permissions to review existing situation of the forums and forum options such as rss.

== How to demo ==
Explain what is done in a sentence

= Design =
 * See if team members do have forum admin permissions (add if no)
 * See if registered users do have forum admin permissions (remove if yes)
 * Check whether a moderator can edit and move topics
 * Check whether one can edit own message
 * Create a Recycle Bin forum
 * Create a test account by signing up.
 * Create a new topic in the Offtopic or the I need help forum
 * Sign out, log in with your own account, edit the topic and move it to the Recycle Bin forum. 
 * Visit http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracRss and trac hacks to research a solution for the forums.
{{{
Note: Different modules provide different data in their RSS feeds. Usually, the syndicated information corresponds to the current view. For example, if you click the RSS link on a report page, the feed will be based on that report. It might be explained by thinking of the RSS feeds as an alternate view of the data currently displayed. 
}}}
 * Send an IM notifying that RSS is available for the forums, suggest to include this into the blog.
= Implementation =
 * Team members do have forum moderator permissions for all topics. (Includes moving and deleteing)
 * Registered users do have editing own posts permissions
 * Recycle bin topic is created [forum:19]
 * Used existing test account 
 * Created a new topic, asked kyli to edit it and moved it in the Recycle bin.
 * RSS is available by choosing timeline with only checked forum checkbox and desired days set, then clicking the amber rss at the bottom of page. Gives this http://sophie2.org/trac/timeline?discussion=on&max=50&daysback=90&format=rss
 * Announced the RSS in the developers chat
 * Forum is reviewed daily
= Testing =

= Comments =
 * The forum look is not good at all. Fixing some issues (the navigation, the IDs, the outline, etc.) or migrating to another forum would be a good idea, since it may become useful in the next releases. --kyli
