Here is what seems to be missing before a first release IMO: * I can see an object viewer but no class viewer * the UI does not allow to edit (except for attachment and comments) but does the library allows it ? * did you had time to implement some caching ? even if you don't have edition yet would still be nice to cache some pages and check behind the scene if the current page changed on server to avoid re-downloading it when you go to page1 then page2 and then go back to page 1. * is https supported ? * in the setup I see you have only the host/port as server information, as we discussed some time ago I think it would be better to let the user put the full base URL (http://host:port/xwiki/rest/) of the REST service (but you can have a wysard to help generate the URL), that's because some part of the URL can be changed by configuration and it also answer my previous question about https I guess * is it too big for the GSOC to have the server setting part as an Android account ? would be super nice since it would allow several application to use the same account to access a wiki. At worst if you looked at it it would be nice to put what you found some far in a http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/ page and same note for any other TODO you have in mind that you could not finish Some suggestions for the demo: * would probably be nicer to do the demo with a well known wiki like xwiki.org or myxwiki.org Did not had much time to look at the code of the library yet but will sure do next Monday. I can see on http://maven.xwiki.org/snapshots/org/xwiki/android/ that you have xwiki-rest-gson-model, xwiki-rest-model-simplexml and xwiki-rest-simplexml-model so which one is teh right form ? As I told you already I think you should have - xwiki-rest-model -- xwiki-rest-model-gson -- xwiki-rest-model-simplexml -- Thomas Mortagne
