Hi everyone,

This is the second progress report of the `Package Statistics` project.
I was busy with exams for two weeks, and it's been a week since I
resumed work.

Summary
=======
The goal of this project is to implement a client-server architecture
for reporting and querying package statistics of Gentoo based machines.
The client program will be used to collect package statistics from
Gentoo installations and submit them to a central server. The server
will calculate useful statistics based on the global dataset, that
developers as well as end users have access to, via an intuitive web
interface.

Past week progress
==================
* Requested packages to be installed on soc.dev.gentoo.org for deploying
  webapp[0]
* Rewrote the client code to be modular
* Added more fields to the client, including stuff from `emerge –info`
  and package metadata
* Updated the server code to handle the updated client data
* Fixed bugs in the sql code
* Started writing exception handling code for the client and server

The current code[1] in the repository provides a working client/server
that collects the following information from a host:

* Uname, portage profile, timestamp of portage tree
* ARCH, CHOST, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, FFLAGS, LDFLAGS, MAKEOPTS
* ACCEPT_KEYWORDS, FEATURES, USE, LANG, SYNC, GENTOO_MIRRORS
* Repository, Keyword, Useflags (plus, minus, unset), Counter, Size,
  and Build time for each installed package

Planned goals for the next week(s)
==================================
* Implement stats pages for the webUI
* Write ebuilds for the client/server
* Continue fixing bugs, handling exceptions
