Community-based support for Commons software

Can we customize Drupal Commons (adding photos/video modules etc) so as to have a social network installation?

Types of Commons sites

I think the current Commons functionality was requested to Acquia by some of their enterprise customers, for social business sites. But probably you can customize it for other types of social sites (such as education, etc.). They are planning to make Commons more customizable in next releases (see for example the issue Split the Commons Core feature into single features).

What specifically?

Pink -

Can you describe a little more what you want when you say "social network installation"?

As a ''social network

As a ''social network installation'',I mean to have the capability to upload photos,videos,have photo-galleries, that to have more multimedia capabilities.

I hope I was clear.
