    This is simple if you are in a position of power within the organization. For most makers, this is not the case, so people end-up with meetings where most organizers belive are goo…

    Ah, I see what you are suggesting. This indeed makes sense and may be possible not so far down the road when we expose APIs. For now, it is possible to implement the same workflow …
