As an Active Communities Officer, I want to network key contacts in a particular area so that they can increase forum participation

This one is not as clear to me as the first. Could you possibly add more detail on what you mean by "network"? To me, it seems as if you're hoping that the Active Communities Officer would be able to forward the details of each "key contact" on to all the other key contacts? Is that what you mean by "networking" them together?

If this is wrong, could you possibly reframe it in terms of what you'd like to see happen as an ideal outcome of this user story?

Hi @GreenCChampion & @GilesGibson – I think we need to discuss this user story in more detail. Is there any chance you could help? I think we still need some clarity in answer to the questions I raised in this snippet you copy+pasted into the description here?

• Could you give us some idea of what is meant by "Network key contacts"?
• What does that look like in a computer system?
• Is this about telling someone to connect with someone else? How might the system do this?

Thanks!

I want people to be able to network people with one another. Have conversations with multiple people, introduce them to one another and their projects, help them share expertise, ideas - support one another to build capacity.
What does that look like in a computer system??? that's difficult for me. I suppose I would like to post an event and then alert multiple people so that they can put it on their networks, or let people know that I am starting a piece of work say on cycling - so anyone interested could they join this new project. Or I might say someone else is starting a project and encourage people to join it by connecting with the person, the project , or an event.
