 updates on it have slowed down, and the only updates that were made during this
 stage mostly comprises of configuration updates.
 These updates were mostly related to bootstrapping [DynaConf](https://www.dynaconf.com/), 
-and fixing issues with the rendering of the `docs` or the main website itself.
+as we embraced 12-factor app configuration recommendations, allowing for better 
+configuration management.
 
 ## Interface
 
-A test suite was developed for the Gitea ecosystem, and a refactor was performed on the
-various structures to leverage the functionality provided by [dataclasses](https://docs.python.org/3/library/dataclasses.html).
-
-Error handling mechanisms were set up for the client side, and an implementation of a 
-forking mechanism was developed, followed by the forking mechanism for the Gitea forge.
 Realising the need for validation of a request to an actor, an authentication 
 mechanism was developed to implement Matrix's [signed JSON](https://github.com/matrix-org/python-signedjson)
 feature, but, was later replaced in favor of [HTTP Signatures](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-cavage-http-signatures).
 
-The database and endpoints were refactored to accommodate features implemented
-by the previous updates to the codebase. Subsequently, this was followed up with an 
-id implementation to support the lazy loading of data.
+Interface underwent major refactoring to improve test-ability and reliability in addition 
+to implementing authentication by a [signed JSON](https://github.com/matrix-org/python-signedjson)
+mechanism implemented by the Matrix project. Taking note of rate-limits imposed by some forges, 
+we figured we'd have to cache responses and so data persistence was implemented by way of 
+storing in a database.
