[ovirt-devel] Python-GTK User Portal

[Vojtech Szocs]

Hi, this project looks nice!

Indeed, UserPortal can be sluggish on devices with limited performance.
Going for custom, light-weight UserPortal sounds like a natural choice,
"samples-portals" repo sounds like a natural place :)

Note that (very) soon I'm going to present a prototype of oVirt.js,
SDK for working with oVirt within JavaScript environment. In future,
we could implement light-weight UserPortal as web application, or we
could use Node.js to host the client application code.

Regards,
Vojtech
