The types of enquiry in RegenCHOICE

Choose your type of enquiry:

sharing interest activity relationship: I have [#] enquiries
This is where you meet other individuals of equal status for anything that does not involve money, from just friendship, sharing interests or activities, to open ended personal relationships. There is no pre-arranged structure for the interaction. See the wiki for more detail.
The enquiry type is [this] active;
collaborating in business: partnerships; collectives; guilds: I have [#] enquiries
This is where you meet other people with complementary business interests. You have equal status, and similar values, but most likely different skills and abilities, so that you can collaborate effectively. See the wiki for more detail.
The enquiry type is [this] active;
living closer together: I have [#] enquiries
Come together to provide for or to contribute towards better living. This may be shorter term, as in younger individuals sharing flats or houses; or may be longer term, as intentional communities. There is no assumption that people will share business activities or income, though this may develop. See the wiki for more detail.

(The enquiry types are described in more detail separately. This is the default ordering, but this can change to reflect the number of active enquiries, current activity, and number of participants)

This is the index to the types of enquiry, and obvious entry point. The first essential concept in RegenCHOICE is that enquiries are split up into different areas of life, with different assumptions: the types of parties involved; the involvement of money; the nature and duration of the envisaged engagement. For employment, and possibly other areas, certain questions are prohibited. This page presents the currently envisaged enquiry types, along with marker information relevant to the user's likely interest. Click on one of the enquiry type names to continue.

Information required and sources

For each enquiry type:

general enquiry type info
DEV/LSV → number of active enquiries; invitations
HUB → activity indicators for enquiry types, built up from cumulative activity indicators from each enquiry, as in the enquiries of type pages

Pre-processing

create activity indicators
Rank the enquiry types for the person. There aren't many enquiry types, so order is not vital. Sort first by number of invitations, then by user active enquiries, then by general enquiry type activity.
