Dear Guy and Gals,

Gentoo on Android is about running Gentoo natively on Android
devices[1], mentored by Luca.

Unfortunately, I have no advancement during last week. There has been an
intense lecture scheduled unexpectedly. In spite of that, I am on
overall schedule.

I'd like to push the above plan into next week, in addition to the
following:

    a. Talk to infra team to distribute a stage4 of armv7a-hardfloat
       Prefix/glibc, probably in gentoo/experimental in mirror.

    b. announce the stage4 in XDA[1]

    c. investigate and distribute a stage4 installer in Google Play[2].
       purchasing of a developer account on Google Play may be needed.

       I may need to learn simple android GUI programming to write such
       a installer.

Cheers,
Benda
