That would also be an indirect reference to sqlite, of course.

Here's the first screenshot (still using the name Fossroid for the time
being, but that's not necessarily final):

http://android.wanderinghorse.net/tmp/fossroid-0.0.0-pre-alphalpha.png

(Yes, it's being i18n'd for German, assuming i can find appropriate
translations for "timeline" and such.)

i am not _quite_ happy with the factory layer yet (the part which converts
between raw JSON objects and higher-level domain objects), but so far it's
coming along okay. Keep in mind that the above represents a
pre-pre-pre-alphalpha version. The UI is in no way final, it's just set up
to let me make progress relatively quickly. Once the domain objects are all
in place i can wrap those in GUI bits with relatively little work.

What currently works:

- login/logout. Only one repo URL for the time being (and it's hard-coded
but can be edited (but is not yet persistent)).

- Posting arbitrary JSON commands is working, but converting those JSON
results into something usable (the domain objects) is where the real work
still is. We need basically (at least) one domain class per response type,
and there is a good deal of nested data and cross-class stuff going on (a
timeline entry references parent uuids, files, etc.). Currently the JSON
responses just get dumped to that scrollable area on the right, with a
couple of exceptions (login/logout/whoami do custom work, maintaining the
auth state for the server connection).

- Responses with error codes are handled centrally/uniformly (an error
dialog).


There's still tons to do before it's anywhere near useful, though. Once it
can do anything worthwhile i'll post the repo, send everyone a link, and
post it on Google Play so that those without dev environments can try it
out. The home page for the code will be somewhere over on
http://android.wanderinghorse.net/.

i'm building a TODO list, and am all ears for feature requests (and
contributors, of course).

:-D
