hi Andy

I wasn't thinking of guessing or extrapolating, unless there is a specific data mining process that might apply ... rather establishing a data base of uk registered vehicles

by reg number or vin or whatever

it would be interesting to know where the unregistered ones are too, for breaker / spares

just thinking out loud


I wholeheartedly agree, Steve, especially as Delicas are now so thin on the ground. If there was an accessible record of members, brief description of vehicle (eg mine is a 1991, P35W) post town (eg Penrith), and we would have a better idea of who lives locally, providing better local support, possibly encouraging/helping them to be kept in running order, and providing an opportunity for them to be saved for spares, or even put back on the road. I have found 2 L300s in scrapyards over recent years which were too good to scrap. Perhaps also a dedicated section for scrappers, with similar information, or ones that have been located in scrapyards. Many appear on the FB forum, but the nature of FB is that they are ephemeral posts, and not so easy to search for. This Spare Parts section is far less used.

To do that you would be recording personal data on a database, so you would need to register with the UK Data commissioner and register under the EU GDPR regulations and the EU Data Commisioner in Ireland.

But first you will need to read through and comply with the UE GDPR regulations, which are here:- https://gdpr-info.eu

Reading those will keep you busy for at least a week.  Laughing

Personally I'm keeping well clear of them. Evil or Very Mad

would details of vehicles be considered "persona"l data ?

for example

if I was passing a white swb series 1 L400, such as you have, and noted those details as well as the public displayed registration number - and made s list of other such observations ?

another way would be just to take a photo and post it

and that way maintain a record ?

At what point does data become personal data? Someone whose real name I don't know lives somewhere in 10 mile radius of me and has a vehicle similar to mine. The only way I could contact them would be to PM them through this site. They don't have to reply if they don't want to. Interpretation of what GDPR means is worse than it should be. It used to be that when I went supply teaching, the school would provide me with paper registers and a set of thumbnail pics of my classes, so I could identify who was who. Now, many schools won't provide them, supposedly due to GDPR. What is the point of me being Police checked every year (and paying for the privilege) if I can't identify some little horror who gives me someone else's name?

let's say we had a category for posts entitled UK registered delicas

and

sub headings based on registration number

and including a pictorial record for each

- no need to identify the owner / or similar details (unless posted by that person in the same manner as in the other forums posts from time to time eg pix of your dlica)

Is a picture or reg number necessary?

The only bit of information missing that would be helpful is the Deli type.

We already have a handle and area recorded, so a sticky with UK registered owners, or geographically split stickies, by scotland/ireland/south/frozen north etc?

This would be users posting their own info onto a public forum so doesn't come under gdpr?

What say yous?

This is half way there
http://www.MDOCUK.co.uk/forums/memberlist.php
Just need a way to sort by date of last posting to see who is active and another column for vehicle type.
Which may just be re-using an existing profile field (eg occupation)
http://www.MDOCUK.co.uk/forums/profile.php?mode=editprofile

other than GDPR phpBB nearly has what we need already - probably a couple of settings to turn on somewhere

Just digging through github and found that memberlist.php does have option for sorting by who was last active, it just the option isn't enabled on the membership list page it seems.

And/or I can't guess the language string used for last active as these don't work

http://www.MDOCUK.co.uk/forums/memberlist.php?mode=lastactive&order=ASC&start=0
http://www.MDOCUK.co.uk/forums/memberlist.php?mode=lastvisit&order=ASC&start=0

or its the sort order?
http://www.MDOCUK.co.uk/forums/memberlist.php?order=last_active&start=0

any hackers out there want to guess?!

{
$sort_key_text['l'] = $user->lang['SORT_LAST_ACTIVE'];
$sort_key_sql['l'] = 'u.user_lastvisit';
}
