39 I took a quick look at last year code, and I think the project would
40 be easier to extend if it was using django. This would avoid writing
41 custom SQL queries, etc... And you can probably steal some code from
42 euscan to do that.
43 Note that I'm not the mentor for this project and it is just an idea.
44
45 I think this years goals should be:
46 - stabilization of the client, and integration with the base system,
47 documentation during installation, etc...
48 - adding more features to the web interface, like what we can find on
49 http://popcon.debian.org/ (charts, sortable tables, overlays usage,
50 etc..)
51 - integration with other gentoo webservices (how ?)
52 - putting the project in production of gentoo-infra
