Hello, |

This was my ninth week in the GSoC for the project Gentoo-GPG. For the |
| 4 |
second half, I will be developing the new MetaManifest system that will |
| 5 |
provide an efficient and secure way to verify the integrity of Gentoo |
| 6 |
distribution. |

My work for this week was to: |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
- Add package manifest verification before the category MetaManifest |
| 11 |
generation to ensure the integrity of the package manifest files. |
| 12 |
- Add more test cases for the verification. |
| 13 |
- Rewrite the create category and master manifest functions to make them |
| 14 |
more efficient and less resource heavy. |
| 15 |
- Rewrite other minor methods for efficiency. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
My plan for next week is to: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
- Show the code to the other Gentoo devs for feedback |
| 20 |
- Continue optimizing and debugging according to feedback. |
| 21 |
- After finishing the debugging of the Meta-Manifest system, generate email |
| 22 |
reminders for keys nearing expiry. |
