Package org.silverpeas.components.community

Silverpeas Web Application Component to manage a community of users for a collaborative space. By default, a collaborative space is visible either only to the users having access rights to it or to all users in the case of a public space. The decision to give access rights to users in Silverpeas are decided unilaterally only by space managers. With this application, a collaborative space can become a community space, that is a space with a community of users. In this case, the space is visible to anyone (but not its content in subspaces, applications, contributions, ...) and any user in Silverpeas can ask to join the community of the space. When joining such a community, the user gain then access rights to the space.

To allow this Community application to manage the community of users for a given space, the recommended way is to instantiated this application into the targeted space and then to declare it as the home page of that space.
