Some jiras reported, but it seems to be in the wrong place :(

1) https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/RSTR-75 <https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/RSTR-75>

2) It makes sense to me (the actual UI) in our case users could have both pictures but the official one use to be out of date, so it is useful be able to choose between both.

3),4) https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/RSTR-76 <https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/RSTR-76>

Anyway getting feedback from T&L group will be great !!

Thanks all !!

I don't know that administrators would want to put this power in the hands of instructors, simply because it might cause them confusion, not because it would do them any harm.

For an infinite scroll this means it would take someone a lot longer to scroll through. On the other hand, seeing someone's picture is a powerful way to identify someone when you cannot remember his/her name. I just have a feeling that there is a better option for the display and UI behavior, but I don't know what it is. Perhaps instead of Official vs Profile picture it should be an option to show photos vs not? And if no photo is shown then display fields in regular table format to squeeze more data per page?  Not sure.

>> Please do not merge these changes into 10.x. 
>> 
>> Being a new feature this needs time to shake the interface out a bit in trunk, imho. While it looks really really cool, there are a couple of interface elements that seem confusing to me. 
>> 
>> We are trying to get 10.3 out the door and I worry that this would add significant risk. Plus, it should be subject to the Maintenance Branch Merge Policy [1].

>> I've just fixed the permissions one. I think you've put the tickets against the wrong project, though. Roster 2's now a component in the Sakai project, so we've got tickets split between. It got me as well. Just leave them where they are this time, unless we really need to move them in the Sakai project.
>> 
>> If anybody on the list wants to create a Roster2 ticket, they should be in the Sakai project, under the Roster2 component , like this one https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-27501 <https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-27501>. Is that right, Sam?

>> Great job Adrian.  The infinite scroll worked really well for me and was fast in a huge testing site.
>> 
>> My only major confusion was the new Groups dropdown when viewing users. I was unclear if I was assigning the user to a group or limiting my view to that one group only.
>> 
>> I would drop the pain of the separate branch and move your code into trunk quickly!
