As you know, GJ doesn't provide the capability for pictures to be added to the GJ wall. The wall only allows member posts and comments w/o pictures. I found that a photo can be uploaded to the Group's Photo area and then the picture does appear in the CB Activity Stream where members can comment on it. The Group's privacy appears to be intact on the Activity Stream, but Group Members' Activity Stream comments aren't captured on the group wall. Is there any way to keep the Activity Steam and the Group's Wall in sync? Can the CB Gallery functionality for adding pictures and files to a steam be used in GJ so members would not need to add pictures to the common Photo area in order to comment on them in a stream, while still keeping the Group's privacy intact?
CB Activity and CB Gallery will integrate with GJ in a later release. This means each group will get a private CB Activity stream with all the functionality that CB Activity provides and a gallery that all the functionality CB Gallery provides. Step 1 of this is done (CB Gallery rewrite). Next is CB Activity, which needs API improvements. Then a new GJ release. The schedule is as follows.
CB 2.1 > GJ 3.0.2 > CB Activity 4.0.0 > GJ 4.0.0 (formally 3.1.0, but now 4.0.0 since it will have plugin deprecation's)

Are there plans to include in the upgrade the ability to add pictures while posting to the CB Activity Stream and/or a GJ Wall? I recently wanted to share a picture already in my gallery with new Connections and found that I needed to upload the picture again to bring the picture and commenting ability to the top of my Activity Steam. Is there an easier way to share pictures with my Connections or Group Members than I'm using?
I did notice that currently, CB Activity Stream does provide the ability to share a link when posting, which is a very nice option, but there's no picture upload ability (the link option isn't available with GJ Wall postings). A picture upload option would seem to fit nicely along side the current CB Activity Stream options, at least from my user's perspective.
Yes, CB Activity will eventually integrate with CB Gallery and allow uploading directly from the stream.
