[Hawkular-dev] [GSoC] Hawkular Android Client: Weekly Report

[Thomas Heute]

Great to see progress !

One thing that I haven't seen which can have a direct impact, is to 
display the push messages: 
http://www.hawkular.org/blog/2015/04/09/alert-notifiers-for-mobile-devices.html

Displaying the notification and opening a screen with detail of an alert 
would be good.

Looking at:

I have few comments:
	- I am not sure about the authentication flow, user should first 
authenticate and then somewhere in the interface he should be able to 
switch tenant (*if* he has several). I guess a good place would be the 
top entry of the side menu.
	- Environment can be ignored for now, it won't be in the admin console 
for a while. In the end, I think you could end up with a single screen, 
with server Host+Port, login name and Password.
	- I don't think we need the metric table, graph are way more useful.
	- Resources at the moment are URLs or Servers. You would need to list 
them.

Thanks again !

Thomas
