MichelSwiss and I may not agree on everything, but we definitely agree on:

Kill shared photos.

Kill shared Videos.

These two things involve basic core functionality. They are an inevitable change, and should be implemented in 7.0

To upgrade 6.1.4 site to 7.0, just create an upgrage script that organizes all existing shared media into a file structure and organize the media according to owner. Then, when a 6.1.4 site is upgraded to 7.0, members will find all of the videos and photos see more that they uploaded in a default photo or video album. Those users then can create multiple photo/video albums and move the media from the default album to any album of their choice. This is the only way that makes sense, especially where privacy controls on media are concerned.

I think that quite all Dolphin users are with us for Photo/Video Albums and Privacy settings, houstonlively :-)

Maybe you already seen that it will be a new feature: Shared Files !!!
As for me I'd like this Files feature to be done as Photo Albums, not as Shared media... What do you think ?

I can't say I completely understand the files module. Whatever it is, I'd put it off until D 7.1

If the file module is Boonex's way of handling existing shared media, I can't think of a worse solution. I've said on multipl occassions, that the way to handle existing shared media, would be to run an upgrade script, that reorganizes all the shared files and gives them back to the user that owns them. All ownership info is in the database and can be used to create a directory structure to organize see more all the media according to owner. This directory structure only needs to be created as it is needed. If a member has not uploaded any media, they don't need a directory structure to store it.

For instance, a users existing photos might be moved to:

dolphin7site.com/media/photo_albums/user_xx/default/

where user_xx is the member ID of the existing shared photo owners, and the 'default' subdirectory is the location of the deafult photo album. Then when the user creates other albums, other directories are created such as:

dolphin7site.com/media/photo_albums/user_xx/album1/
dolphin7site.com/media/photo_albums/user_xx/album2/
dolphin7site.com/media/photo_albums/user_xx/album3/
... etc, where album1, album2, & album3, etc, are new albums that the user created.

I am also in agreement about the photo and video sharing....Kill it....Privacy is a must.
