HeirChat · Grandma's Royal Crown Derby

A gentle conversation about who'd like this · you choose what's shared
DR SR ST
This thread is family-only. Only the people added to this HeirChat can see what's said here — nothing is shared beyond this thread unless you choose to.

Rather than one of you taking the whole set, could we split it between you and Sarah? Six each?

Six each sounds perfect — I'd love the ones with the gold rim.

From your estate & the INHERIT standard
This is a specific gift of a set, not a single item — so unlike a one-off piece, it can be divided between beneficiaries. HeirChat surfaces the wish and the rule here; it doesn't decide for you.

That's settled then, thank you both. Stephen, you take the six with the gold rim — Sarah, the other six are yours.

David's decision · draft
“The Royal Crown Derby service is shared equally — six pieces to Stephen, six to Sarah — just as we agreed together.” Recorded but not yet final — you can change this any time before it's confirmed.
Visible to: David, Stephen & Sarah — agreed together in this thread

You control who's in this thread and what each person sees. We'll never share your decision until you choose to.

Built on INHERIT v2

This demo is built on INHERIT v2 — an open standard for describing an estate. We show you honestly which parts of this screen the standard can hold today, which are planned, and which are still gaps.

  • Supported now0 entriesThe standard already has a place for this today.
  • Supported now · shared core2 entriesSupported by the part of the standard shared across our brands.
  • Planned2 entriesA change proposal covers this. Where we can check the standard’s own record, we show its status.
  • Gap — needs planning0 entriesOn the screen, but no change proposal covers it yet. These still need planning.
  • Not a standard concept0 entriesPage furniture, or something we decided the standard should not hold.

4 traced entries on this screen, from two overlapping traces

Each entry comes from either the screen’s feature list or the data the screen displays. The two traces overlap, so one feature can appear twice: these are entries, not a count of distinct features.

The 30 change proposals this demo relies on

A change proposal (ICP) is a tracked request to extend the standard. These are the ones behind the “Planned” features across all 32 screens — and the few already adopted and built. Where the standard has a written proposal we show its status from the standard’s own record; where it does not, we say so rather than guess.
