Is your feature request related to a problem? A clear and concise description of what the problem is.

Author = the user that created the initiative in the first place

Member = user that was accepted as a member in the promoter committee

Currently members have the same permissions as the author of the initiative. A member can send the initiative to technical validation (without a way to cancel) remove and accept other members. This creates a high level of uncertaintety around the process of drafting an initiatives. We added versioning so we can at least track changes made by everyone.

Here is an exhaustive permission table for members and authors : https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/11473995/101887291-f073f400-3b9c-11eb-8c74-e01925d55bf2.png

Describe the solution you'd like

We think that distinguishing the permissions of the initial author and the co-author would help solve this issue.

Here's the updated permission table that we propose implementing :

Hey @josanFFiG ,
Could you tell us more specifically what may happen ?
I imagine cases like the author dropping out leaving the rest of the promoter committee having to restart a new initiative. Apart from that nothing comes to mind.

Have you seen a lot of collaboration "on" Decidim to draft an initiative ? I mean like different people changing the description, the title adding a joint file sending it technical validation. I feel like all of that happens outside of Decidim on solutions more fit to it like Etherpad, or google docs and that the promoter's committee members are really here to show that it's a collective supporting the initiative and not just one group or person.

Would love to learn more about your hands on experience ? Thank you so much in advance.
