Yes Charles Belle it is a manual KYC currently. There is a way we could automate it since we can plug into Zapier. Zapier has various workflows, but I am unfamiliar with what we need to do to verify.

I imagine for public officials like yourself a manual process wouldn’t be too onerous. I bet most of them (I am just now starting to reach out to some from AAPI community) will be people we know and can just verify them ourselves.

1/ Manual. We just need a clear policy and set of steps (how to confirm actual person and whom to contact). But agreed, easy.

2/ Automatic. I wonder if we can ask an entity for pro bono support (even if it's just for a limited number of people/moderators (e.g. http://passbase.com). Individuals can KYC just like a bank, be "verified" with a sticker, etc., assuming they score above a certain confidence level. But it's an option, not a requirement to participate. And all PII is held by the third party entity, not OpenSF.

Yes that should be possible if there’s a webhook. Also curious in how you were able to write without logging in. Let me check Charles Belle
