Hello,

Current State of Universal Select Tool - uselect

Proposal link: 
http://socghop.appspot.com/student_project/show/google/gsoc2009/gentoo/t124022356237

uselect implementation started a few weeks before SoC officially started
to "de-rust" myself on python programming. 

Here follows a checklist of what it already does right now.

* modules syntax defined
* modules support any scripting language
* module conversion from eselect to uselect are very easy (even when not
symlinking)
* per-user/system-wide actions
* simple symlinking actions are defined in 1 line only. uselect does all
the job.
* changing a user python interpreter through adding ~/.uselect/bin to
PATH through /etc/profile (is this the better way?)

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.

Cheers,
Sérgio
