Since there are too many tasks about server and connectivity,they first need to be categorized, analyzed and scheduled. A clear vision for further procedure is needed - this task is about doing so. == Task requirements == Analyze the current status and what needs to be done for the following: * The whole connectivity design must be revised (in this task) - what does is consist of, how does the client use the connectivity module, etc. * Facade - since the resources are being redesigned, the facade needs to be changed. Real time collaboration support should be provided (sync methods). * Connection list - the connection list in the client needs to be persisted, should provide manipulation ability, connections need to have clear statuses defined. * Server resource listing - the client needs to have a clear way of getting server resource lists (keeping in mind the security permissions). Also, needs to have filtering, searching, open/close support. This issue affects the server, too. * Client U.I. - there is currently a tab for the server stuff in the left flap, it must be re-designed and synchronized with our analysis men. * Security - there is already some user/group model, but no logic is using it. Analyze / design the base security model. == Task result == * In the design - design documentation for every connectivity aspect discussed above. Design diagrams are needed, auto tests are obligatory. * In the implementation - Achievable schedule of what will be accomplished in what time, considering connectivity. The common design must be implemented as a basis for the next tasks. The tasks which will be implemented should be grouped and (optionally) analyzed. == Implementation idea == * The base.connectivity module currently does not maintain the list of the available connections - they are kept in the corresponding palette. Consider this behavior. * There is a design draft for the new resource facade after the resource redesign - [http://pastebin.asteasolutions.net/f444cc8f1]. Another idea is that the client implementation of the facade is used by the server resource accesses, and the server-side implementation uses the server resource accesses. * Connection listing should mainly use the server resource access, so it must be synchronized with other teams' work. == Related == [wiki:GROUP_RESOURCE_MODEL_REDESIGN_R0] == How to demo == Explain the complete model to the teams.
