1 What's the current status of GLEP 14?
2
3 This wiki page on glsa-check (which seems to have been more or less
4 unchanged for a very long time) has a roadmap:

6 http://gentoo-wiki.com/Glsa-check
7
8 """
9 The implementation will take place in the following order:
10
11 1. distribute GLSAs in the portage tree (completed)
12 2. release a beta version of the GLSA handling code in gentoolkit (in
13 progress)
14 3. move dependency handling code from emerge to portage.py
15 4. add glsa.py to portage
16 5. integrate functions from glsa-check in emerge and equery
17
18 Note: This list might be expanded in the future
19 """

22 So, is there some work that needs to be done on portage before step 3
23 happens -- i.e. is now the wrong time to be doing that work? Or is it
24 just lack of somebody to do it?
