####5th of May - 12th of May:
* Reading the paging out code in gnumach.
* Understanding IPC in gnumach and reading some code.
* Reading "[gnu_src]/kern/sched_prim.c"
####12th of May - 19th of May:

---
* Testing period of the current code.
---
* Modify the rest of the translators to implement the new libpager API.
---
