Hello I have finished working on implementing the safe cookie authentication support for Stem. Damian fixed a few things[1] and merged it into master. I'm now working on implementing the general controller class. GETINFO parsing was implemented by Damian as an example. I've implemented GETCONF parsing[2] for the controller. It's almost done. I'm also going to implement the other methods to handle the remaining control commands allocated to week 2 and 3 in my proposal[3]. Note: I'm behind my schedule by a little more than a week. I had an exam during the 2nd week, because of which I couldn't do much/any work that week. Though, I do have enough buffer time to make up for this, and, I'm trying to catch up with my schedule. 1. https://gitweb.torproject.org/stem.git/commit/560923cb7b572d02046c6ca2bd5eb4... 2. https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/6114 3. https://www.torproject.org/about/gsocProposal/gsoc12-proposal-stemImprovemen... -- neena
