Abstract

Techniques for club member control of communication preferences in a multi-club environment are described. A club member may belong to multiple clubs and may use a single facility to manage communication for those clubs. The communication facility may maintain a number of communication channels. The channels may be accessible via multiple types or modes of communication. Club members may configure communication preferences for at least some channels. Communication channels may be arranged in a dependency graph. A graphical user interface (GUI) for viewing and editing communication preferences may include a representation of the dependency graph and per channel preferences may include a preference to inherit preference settings from parent channels. Various operations associated with communication channels may involve traversing the dependency graph including determining preference values, propagating updates, displaying channel content and determining if a club staff member has permission to view a club member's communication preferences.
