Private Community Groups

[pburn]

How does one go about creating a private community group, maybe on one of the categories like "Seller Groups/Special Interest Groups?" Does it require permission from eBay or Khoros? I looked around for any info on starting one of these private groups but didn't run across anything. 

I'm interested in a group that cannot be accessed by anyone other than approved members of the group.

@pburn since I've taken over for Allen, I haven't set up groups for Community members who've requested one. I'll circle back around soon to let you know the process.

Thanks,  sheila@ebay. No  hurry. Consider it a low priority.

@pburn I had a chat with Brian about this and we're going to revisit this the 2nd half of the year. I'll follow up as soon as I have a process in place.

Thanks for following up on this, sheila@ebay. I'll let the interested parties know to look for some kind of update in the second half of the year.

Seventeen more days in "the 2nd half of the year." Any progress on formulating a response?

After the elimination of The Soapbox because it was not eBay-related content, the assumption is other boards will soon follow, like The Homestead and The Park, since they are not eBay-related either. A statement regarding the future other boards that are not eBay-related would seem to be in order.
