 Outside of these achievements, in the hacking sessions *kpcyrd* made a breakthrough in [Alpine Linux](https://alpinelinux.org/) by producing the first reproducible package (specifically, [`py3-uritemplate`](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/alpine/main/py3-uritemplate/py3-uritemplate-3.0.0-r4.apk.html)) in this operating system. After this, progress was accelerated and at the end of the meeting the [reproducibility status in Alpine](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org/alpine/alpine.html) reached 94%. In addition, Jelle van der Waa, Mattia Rizzolo and Paul Spooren discussed and implemented substantial changes to the database that underpins the testing framework that powers [tests.reproducible-builds.org](https://tests.reproducible-builds.org) in order to further abstract the schema in a distribution agnostic way (for example, to allow submitting the results of attempts to verify officially distributed [Arch Linux](https://www.archlinux.org/) packages).
