This week was a little less productive than usual. I got the front |
| 2 |
end to be much more usable, allowing configurations to be modified by |
| 3 |
the user at will and making it possible to view the settings of a |
| 4 |
configuration. I also added a validity check on configurations before |
| 5 |
the build stage, making sure the backend won't waste time trying to |
| 6 |
build an image with packages that are no longer available, etc. I |
| 7 |
broke the backend into smaller parts just to keep things better |
| 8 |
organized and fixed various bugs that had made their way into the |
| 9 |
backend while I've been focusing on the frontend. I also added the |
| 10 |
option to set a timezone, choose udev or static-dev, and to choose |
| 11 |
from preconfigured sets of packages, such as "HTTP Servers" and |
| 12 |
"Desktop Environments". Lastly, I updated the welcome page to list |
| 13 |
popular builds, recent completed builds, and recently downloaded |
| 14 |
builds. |

To do: |
| 17 |
-Continue to expand the options available for configuring the build |
| 18 |
-Extend the API used by frontend modules to also work for options |
| 19 |
universal to all modules |
| 20 |
-Add privacy options so users can choose whether to share the builds |
| 21 |
and configurations they have created |
| 22 |
|

In preparation for offering adding/removing init scripts, I'd |
| 24 |
appreciate if people could execute the following and email it to me, |
| 25 |
along with what arch they're running: |
| 26 |
equery belongs /etc/init.d/* |
| 27 |
|

Thanks. |
