This is the 1st in a series of bi-weekly reports which will follow alongside the implementation of tails-greeter project.

Current progress:

• created design document as subpage for TailsGreeter on wiki
• tried building tails iso

Problems:

• build fails with various problems on different machines
• build requires root privileges (upstream problem with live-build, see http://live.debian.net/devel/live-build/todo/ entries for "core")

Near-future plans:

• investigate and fix abovementioned problems
• read on .deb packaging
• read on vala (development environment setup and code samples)

Additional notes:

This entry will serve as a small test for unicode support of ikiwiki as well - see the numbering in heading :)
