From OpenNMS

Current use of Availabiity Reports in OpenNMS is that reports are generated on demand and emailed to the user that demanded the report. Change the usage so that users are able to browse and view scheduled they are authorized to see as well as their requested reports. Reports that are currently being generated should be reflected as such in this interface.

Questions

1. Define "their requested reports". This implies some kind of access control as well as authentication. Currently reports are generated by category. This implies that each category will have an ACL associated with it.
2. How long should we retain reports?
3. Can users request that reports be mailed to them (i.e. mail this to me?).
4. Can users request that reports be sent elsewhere? This is probably a subset of the previous question (mail this to a group of users).
5. Should the existance of reports, both previously generated and in the process of generation, be visible to unauthorised users.
