1 Hi everyone,
2
3 == Brief summary of this project ==
4
5 This project is a continuation of last year's project, "Automatically
6 generated overlay of R packages". Its aims are extending overlay
7 creation and, more importantly, automated overlay maintenance.
8
9 For reference, the roverlay git repo can be found at [0], which also
10 provides some documentation [1].

13 == Progress of this week ==
14
15 * wrote documentation for "distmap" and "run hooks"
16 * added SLOT handling to the dependency resolver. depres is now able
17 to resolve dependency strings (=input, from R package files) as
18 slotted dependencies (=output for ebuilds). This feature (and its
19 documentation) is near completion, but needs some minor changes in
20 order to be useful.
21
22 I did not fully accomplish what I've planned for this week due to an
23 ongoing exam, which means that I'm slightly behind schedule, but I'm
24 confident to catch up soon (next week).
25
26
27 == Plans for the next week ==
28
29 * complete SLOT handling feature
30 * start with overlay verification - structural testing
