I know that this is going to make things worse than better, but...

If the information is purely referential and only as a history to discussions, projects, whatever, then I think we can allow the default status to be read, but that assumes that ANYONE is going to read it in their own time - if they are busy with other items then the status will become moot - default "read" items will actually be permanently unread. People will be too busy checking their other unreads to actually bother to read the others. There's got to be some discipline somewhere.

There's also the point (which sort of negates everyone being equal in Groove) that it would be kinda handy for the poster of any information to see which members of the space have read something, giving people the ability to know who has been aware of something and who isn't - but then that gives us various states of "unread" - those whom have read it, and those that have blanket unread the entire tool.

Pandora's box?
