I admit that current development workflow is quite complex for a rather simple application that UserPortal should be. Also consider that UserPortal contains two things, "Basic" + "Extended" section, so it's more complex by design :) Anyway, JavaScript SDK should bring more possibilities. > > I would not necessarily throw it away, but I'm completely for moving such a > project to the oVirt umbrella.

Yes, thin clients for specific devices (like ones with limited performance) are clients too, so I agree with above. > > > > > Thanks, > > michal > > > > > > > > Regards, > > > Vojtech > > > > > > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > >> From: "Amador Pahim" <[email protected]> > > >> To: [email protected] > > >> Sent: Tuesday, May 27, 2014 4:53:35 AM > > >> Subject: [ovirt-devel] Python-GTK User Portal > > >> > > >> Olá, > > >> > > >> I'm running some tests with Raspberry Pi, trying to use it as a thin > > >> client to oVirt. > > >> > > >> My initial test was just open web User Portal using a browser.
