User posts a file

[annbass]

Original story:

1. Maria uploads a photo of her car and shares it with her friends.
2. Maria decides that the picture is too big and crops it to just show the car. She uploads a new version to replace the original.
3. Maria realizes the photo includes her license plate number, which she would rather not share for privacy reasons. She deletes the photo.

Original from: Evan Prodromou

Objections or comments from voters, to be resolved:

• A. +1 We think there is slight confusion between the user story title and the actual details. Using a photo within the steps brings to mind "embedded media" (e.g. flickr) but the title brings to mind a simple file attachment (e.g. word document). -- Adam Boyet / @aboyet and Ann Bassetti / @annbass
• B. +1 I would assume this would result in inline viewing of the file (photo, video, audio) but that is more a UI problem. I've been posting photos to my site using Micropub since 2014-03 -- Aaron Parecki / @aaronpk
• C. +1 But I have problems with "too big" and "crops it to just show the car" if that requires standard sizes. -- Andreas Kuckartz / @akuckartz
• D. +1 / -1 depending on if photo/media-specific, or "any file". -- Kevin Marks
  • +1 posting a photo already part of SWAT0, and something I intend to implement, even if via a service like ownyourgram.
  • -0 cropping a photo does not need to be part of the API, perhaps just UI of client code/engine.
  • -1 if this means any "file", then this is not core and must not be in v1.
  • +1 I've been posting photos to my sites since 1995
• E. +1 intend to implement including file attachments with posts on my own site (not the cropping, that sounds like it happens out of band anyway) -- Amy Guy / @rhiaro

We already have an implementation proposal for this story from @aaronpk

I suggest renaming this story to 'User posts a photo' and for now focus on that common use case assuming cropping details outside of the scope. @kevinmarks

sounds good to me
