Please do not switch from top to bottom posting, or I might start to get
sick :p
What is the correct convention for posting to the list? :) Top, bottom,
inline?
For the query parameter, is there any reason why we are using a query
parameter and not a matrix parameter?
Personally I think a matrix parameter makes a lot more sense
http://hawkular/metrics;tenant=foo/gauges/....
versus
http://hawkular/metrics/gauges/....?tenant=foo
Always having to specify tenant at the end of the url seems strange to
be. Logically I would think that it should be applied to the metrics
resource itself and not to all the child resources.
Something like this would normally mean that the parameter 'a' is to be
applied to the 'foo/bar' resource:
http://foo/bar;a=b/baz
While, something like this would normally mean that the parameter 'a' is
to be applied to the 'foo/bar/baz' resource:
http://foo/bar/baz?a=b
Yes, "Hawkular-Tenant" is valid, but I'd prefer to pick something short
("tenant") for the query parameter fallback.
In fact, I'd prefer to have short names for all out-of-band query
parameters, like "pretty" to get a formatted JSON output.
