Weekly status: started working on second milestone, progressing a bit slowly but within schedule. For the record: the format of the +CONTENTS file is way too ugly to be allowed to survive :) Someone should replace it with XML or at least make it reasonably parseable instead of it being treated as a kludgy variety of a batch file / shell script with some parts of it being executed in certain contexts. It looks like the only way to deterministically determine the result of package addition prescribed in +CONTENTS might be to "execute" it line by line in a virtual machine / sandbox, which I'm leaving for a future exercise.
