Hi there :)

Current progress

    convert tails-greeter to old-style pygtk to remove pygi dependecy: [in progress]
    re-test converted version with squeeze: [done, test failed]
    check if current localization handling is suitable for tails-greeter: [postponed]
    make plans for next week: [done]


Problems

    proper procedure for version increase
    errors with dbus after conversion
    dpkg-divert required for proper testing
    need easy way to run python syntax quick check on entire file


Near-future plans

    add dpkg-divert functionality to .deb
    fix errors found after conversion
    run external (placeholder) program with adequate parameters on language change
(locale generation for example)
    alter python code with dummy 'admin password requestor'
    add tails-greeter.deb into tails.git (main) repo
    add note that it's dangerous to install tails-greeter.deb :)


cheers,
Max.
