Hi,

Thanks for the update.

Concerning your commit: please don't use a commit message like "Mid-term
evaluation", but something more descriptive. Note that these commit
messages get send to the daisy-commits mailing list, and are also very
helpful when browsing version history later on.

I have already completed your mid-term evaluation earlier today. I
didn't know there was anything to wait for. Anyhow, your commit wouldn't
influence my evaluation.

I'm quite optimistic and positive about what you've done so far, but for
the remainder of the gsoc I would like to see some regular (e.g. weekly)
status reports that explain what you've been working on (including
problems you lost time on, design decissions you've made, things you've
been studying, ...) and what you'll do next. Without this, it is very
hard for me to judge the effort you put into this, or to know what
you're currently working on, and hence to give in-advance advice. The
code you wrote up to now could have been written in just a couple of
days (and in the end you probably did, but there was probably quite some
learning along the way).

At this point, given that you now should have a much better view on your
project than before, I would also like to see some plans for the
remainder of the gsoc, thus what items you plan to work on, what you
think you will be able to realize by the end.

Also, if you have more expectations from me as mentor, please let me
know too.
