Whiteboard
- Make a new UI skin (available from /manage)
- Provide a list of application instances (implemented)
- Provide a menu of registered applications (implemented)
- Allow adding a new application instance from the menu (implemented)
There's a simple implementation in grok trunk, written by Theuni, refactored by philiKON and improved by Darryl Cousins. Apart from beauty, what's still missing?
- if you create an application with a name that already exists,
a sensible feedback message instead of an error
- skin requires skinning support, not a requirement for 0.9 I believe. We
do need this in 1.0.
The ability to browse the object database and inspect objects
(and potentially modify them) is not needed for 0.9; it's a future goal
for the admin UI however.
