So debconf finally ends and with that, ends an experience of a lifetime.Sorry for being late with the report as I had to move to geneva from yverdon les bains and was busy with the packing for going back home.</li><li style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;margin-left:15px">
I tested the two new schemes and found out some bugs. One bug was because I was creating a reference to a weighting expansion scheme inside an if(){} and then trying to use it outside the if which gave me a huge headache until I realized what was wrong.</li>
<li style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;margin-left:15px">I wrote tests for the Bo1 scheme and they work well.</li><li style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;margin-left:15px">But , some tests based on the old mechanism still fail and I am having a hard time finding out why. I will discuss this in detail with my mentor this week.</li>
<li style="font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;margin-left:15px">I cleaned up all the current code and pushed it on github for the feedback of my mentor. I will continue understanding the reasons for the failiure of some of the tests while my mentor reviews my code.</li>
