[gentoo-keys] Gentoo Keys: Expansion and improvements -- weekly report #8

[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 #8
=======

Status: on schedule

Tasks done:

* Complete gkey-gen implementation (GLEP 63 GPG key generator)
   * Developers and users are now able to create GLEP 63 based GPG keys.
   * Documentation also has been written(will be published soon) that
shows how to create a key easily step by step.

Goals for the next week:

* Continue work with Binary keyring support.
* Add feature in gkey-gen to auto generate revocation certificates.
* Package gkey-gen, gkey-ldap and gkeys
    * Create ebuilds for each application.


Best regards,
Pavlos Ratis
