Yes, let's do that as we're all three on tails-dev and nobody from
tails-testers answered.

I think we have enough. I'll phrase the instructions in a way that makes
it clear that the screenshot might vary a bit depending on the Mac
version. But I still think they are going to be important to clarify the
context (what screen are we talking about).

Ah! I like this better :)

Ok, that's easier for us then.

Yes, that's minor enough.

So now I'm convinced that I want to use your screenshots. Could you do a
last thing for me? Could you update both the one for DVD and the one for
USB and have the Tails DVD and Tails USB selected (the arrow below the
Tails one)?

Many thanks! I really hate dealing with Mac.

Re: [Tails-dev] Windows 10 theme for Tails/Jessie

Hi,

I don't think that it's a good idea to ship cinnamon on Tails. It's a
*fork* of GNOME and would make the user experience under the camouflage
too different than under the standard GNOME I think.

I think that this is a very bold assumption. You can do basically
everything with shell extensions.

What do you mean by "a decent taskbar"?

Suse Entreprise Desktop made a GNOME desktop with only one panel:

http://videos.guadec.org/2015/Challenge%20of%20Enterprise%20Desktop%20with%20GNOME%203/

They have litte patches to GNOME shell JS, which I think we could
apply if needed, as well as their own extension.

Great! Would you try thin under Tails Jessie? You can find the latest
ISO here:
