Next steps: * look deeper into eselect already implemented functions that most modules use (by using inherit) and see what is uselect still lacking * define profiling system (nice thread on gentoo-dev on this) * start the profile system implementation * start using gentoo's git Further Notes: * At this point I am ahead on schedule because of my early start. With this I have plenty of time to implement features that were not described on the proposal. * Soon I will push the code into gentoo's git. If you have time, take a look at it. Hope these reports are taken also as a "call for ideas". Hope I'm not lacking any information. I'm loving working with Gentoo on this. Learned a lot until now.
