Hello everyone, |
| 2 |

I am working on Gentoo Identity, an LDAP web UI that aims to be a |
| 4 |
general-usage application that will allow users - developers - recruiters - |
| 5 |
administrators to configure their attributes easily from Gentoo's LDAP |
| 6 |
server. |

|

This week, I implemented a secondary password to the application. This is a |
| 9 |
temporary password that is stored encrypted in the session and in LDAP. |
| 10 |
This password improves user experience and allows user to browse Identity |
| 11 |
without submitting password all time. Also, I did some extra profiling on |
| 12 |
template rendering times using django-debug-toolbar and a 3rd party |
| 13 |
panel[1]. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
My plans for the next week are to start working on caching along with |
| 16 |
mgorny and develop a caching plan. I'll also enable secondary password to |
| 17 |
profile page and user settings. Finally, I'll migrate Identity's template |
| 18 |
engine from Django's built-in engine to Jinja2. |
