Change log

Office correspondence

• Applications for new Field Offices now reach the Registry: the site admin reviews, approves or declines them in Moderation, with the most-requested cities on top.
• The Registry now writes letters: take-down requesters hear when their request is received and decided, moderators hear about new reports and take-downs, filers hear when someone logs a new outfit on their goose or when a moderator removes their filing, and Field Office applicants hear back.
• Turn off notices about your filings in Edit profile, or with the link at the bottom of any notice.
• Moderators can read every letter the Registry sends, with sample particulars, under Moderation → Letters.
• The Registry is live at gooseregistry.com.
• Photos are only removed from storage once nothing on the Registry uses them.

Goose particulars

• Geese now have a type on file: raw concrete, painted concrete, plastic, resin and the rest.
• Every goose record has a location map, with a link to its spot on the office map.
• Filing forms number their items, ask for a certification, and end with a “For office use only” strip.
• “Log outfit change” moved up beside Honk on the goose record.
• This change log, and the version number in the footer.

Moderation office

• Moderators can suspend filers, and the site admin can appoint moderators.
• Reports and take-down requests are handled from a menu on each case. Handled cases open to show the whole file.
• Your account menu sits under your avatar: profile, edit profile, moderation and sign out.
• Filer profiles show outfits filed, honks given and honks received.

Field work

• Report a problem with a goose, or with one of its outfits.
• Address search suggests matches as you type, reaches just past the city line, and points to the right office when an address is elsewhere.
• Crop photos after uploading them.
• Outfits have a name, an optional description and a theme.
• Spam protection on honks, reports, take-down requests and office applications.
• The Registry moved to gooseregistry.com.

The office opens

• The Pittsburgh Field Office opens, with a map of every goose on file.
• File a goose and log its outfit changes, with photos.
• Honk for the geese you like. The most honked make the leaderboard.
• Sign in with Google. Filers get a public profile.
• Homeowners can ask for a take-down.
