[IPython-dev] Is there a way to open a notebook via one click in tmpnb.org?

[Nicholas Bollweg]

I see a lot of problems with this, but would desperately love to see it
happen.

If some route on tmpnb used the same url scheme as nbviewer, and we knew
which kernels were there, it would be possible to make every notebook up
there viewable... Maybe even use nbviewer as a first pass filter.

The issues:
- no real knowledge of which kernels are available in tmpnb (working on
this)
- no concise metadata for what should be available when the kernel starts
(requirements.txt)
- many notebooks use other things (code, assets) stored along with them...
What should we being along? For repos, that would be "easy," for raw URLs
that would be "impossible".
- At the end of a session... So what? Likely will never add authentication
to tmpnb, so it would be hard to get your data back out... Fine for
playground stuff, but...
