It looks really nice! I was not aware of this project. Who is mentoring you? I have a couple of comments/questions. > > There is some information about the project: > 1.

It would be great if you can comment with them aspects related to user experience and the UI. > Automatic archives extraction for Epiphany is almost completed now!

But before doing this, I would recommend you to check the part (1). Then you could open a bug report and post your patches there, so that we can eventually merge the code into ephy master. > All codes related to archives are in the `autoarchive' directory.

It would be wise to take all code that can be reused in other projects out of epiphany and make it a standalone library or part of an existing one where it would make sense. You should probably discuss this with your mentor to find the most suitable path. Thank you!
