[gentoo-soc] Project Grumpy - report #5

[Priit Laes]

This is a progress report #5 for Project Grumpy.

Progress so far
===============

I basically wasted last week trying to get Tinderbox working on my desktop
machine, but eventually gave up as I ran into some troubles with its
networking.

I also cooperated with infra team to get my app running on soc.dev.gentoo.org,
but eventually gave up because I needed upstream release for Flask-SQLAlchemy,
and patching it would have been too cumbersome.

Therefore I ended up setting a preview of the web UI on my own server, just
visit our IRC channel [1] to get the url ;)

Also, together with my mentor Leio, we updated roadmap for the second part of
this project timeline. More about that in the future plans section.
