[gentoo-keys] Gentoo Keys: Expansion and improvements -- weekly report #9

[Pavlos Ratis]

Hello,

This year I am working on improving and expanding the features of Gentoo Keys.

Gentoo Keys is a Python based project that aims to manage the GPG
keys used for validation on users and Gentoo's infrastructure
servers. These keys will be any/all of the release keys, developer keys
and any other third party keys or keyrings available or needed.

Source code: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo-keys

Week #9
=======

Status: on schedule

Tasks done:

* Documentation writing
  * Expanded gkey-gen docs
* Binary keyring support
  * Gentoo Keys can now export a public keyring with trusted keys.
That binary keyring can be signed by a Certificate Authority(CA) and
distributed to the users.

Goals for the next week:

* File verification
  * Move new official seed files and glep63 config file to api.gentoo.org
  * Sign glep63 gpg config and seed files
  * Implement file verification in Gentoo Keys
* Continue work with Binary keyring support
   * Improvements / Testing

Best regards,
Pavlos Ratis
