CUNY Academic Commons

I wonder if it might be desirable to, by default, limit the appearance of group activity items from affiliated Group Sites only to new posts published and new comments posted.

What prompted this was that I implemented a new category on the TLC site and tagged some earlier posts, which, unbeknownst to me, generated an activity item on the TLC group. This activity item then showed up in sitewide activity elsewhere on the site, and prompted both members of the CAC team and other GC staff to tweet out links to fellowship opportunities published earlier in the year, but long since closed. Ideally those folks would have checked the deadline in the posts, but I don't see a rationale for minor (or even major) edits to an already published post flowing over to the group activity (especially with no way to opt out).

Thoughts?
