Good day, to one and all.
I am considering to utilize a PubSub service as a public discussion
board; and, as a public discussion board, it should be free for all.
I was wondering whether an approval or other type of moderation
mechanism is specified for PubSub.
Kind regards,
Schimon

This is probably not enough, to me.
So, I will ask another question.
Write-only PubSub service
-------------------------
Is it possible to set a write-only PubSub service?
Such PubSub service would be accessible to administrators and be
utilized to approve or disapprove messages.
Approved messages to public PubSub
----------------------------------
If a message is approved, then an administrator would be able to
forward it to a PubSub service which is dedicated for public discussion.
Do you have any opinions on this?

Node admin should be able to retract any item

Users send messages with type='normal' to
"messageboard(a)yourservice.example"mple", use threads (XEP-0201) to track replies for
a given subject;
admin receives messages on that JID and approves/rejects them, which they can then forward
to the appropriate pubsub service.
Users who are subscribed to any of these pubsub nodes will receive updates.

Greetings, Tedd.
Yes, an account as a service could be a solution, if that is what you
mean. I would consider it for comments system in projects Rivista.
I do sense that an approval mechanism or a write-only PubSub service
would be of good use as well.
Thank you,
Schimon

Hi Schimon,
There is the "authorize" access model, isn't that what you are looking for?

I'ld surprised, if such a mechanism does not exist.
It's necessary for any public comment system.

I wanted a write-only node, but Tedd has kinddly offered this solution.

Best,
Goffi Yes, an
account as a service could be a solution, if that is what
you mean.
No, just a standard chat account where an 'admin' can receive posts
in order to moderate them. Not everything needs to be provided by
pubsub just because you're using pubsub for publishing.
You will need to tie everything together with an interface to present
it to users in a coherent way, but you will need to do that
regardless of the underlying mechanisms used; the point is that you
can build this right now, without waiting for some future dream
features.
