Hi,

I made a cherrypy server for a website. I would also like to make an 
android app that has the same function as the website, and I am wondering 
if I can/should also use cherrypy for that. There are at least two issues:

1) It is not obvious how users authentication can be accomplished. I was 
using https://github.com/cherrypy/tools/blob/master/AuthenticationAndAccessRestrictions 
for the website. Are android apps able to use sessions?
2) For the website, I was using an infinite loop of http requests with a 
long timeout period to effectively push data to the client. Would this work 
with an android app? Would this lead to an app that uses excessive cpu?

Thanks.

Andrew
