Eliminate BillLoader and LegislatorLoader if at all possible #549

Closed konklone closed 11 years ago

konklone commented 11 years ago

BillLoader and LegislatorLoader were originally added because back in the day when I was using TabActivity, there was an absurd bug where if you loaded the TabActivity without any tabs added, it would crash when not in touch mode (when in trackball mode).

Now that we're using an Activity that loads ViewPager'd fragments, this isn't a problem, so we should be able to move the background network fetching into the Activities with the ViewPager themselves.

This would also have to address the path that notifications to bill and legislator info take when tapped.
