Re: [Tails-dev] Please help coordinate the work on Tails 3.0

Hi,

I've just made a pass on the remaining 3.0 tickets, postponed some,
and adjusted priorities here and there. So now would be a good time to
sanity-check your (updated) plate, if not done yet :)

Cheers,

That's still the plan. The 3.0 milestone has 76 open tickets, which
doesn't seem entirely realistic to me: let's fix that!

Please have a look now at *your* Tails 3.0 tickets, and think: if you
can handle them by the end of May, fine. If there are some you think
you will not be able to address by the end of May, then please
clarify your plans on Redmine ASAP so anonym and I have time to take
over if we feel they are release blockers.

Bonus points if you drop me a line privately once you've gone through
this, so I know how to interpret any lack of action on Redmine :)

Thanks a lot in advance!

Right. I would add "reviewing each others work" to the list of what
should get our attention in priority. Or at least it's a good share of
my work towards 3.0 :)

Agreed as well. What I could do is still send a call for translation
around May 15th, listing stuff that can already be updated. Trying to be
careful about not living tickets open that will affect these same bits
again before the release.

I created #12498 to track this.

I didn't do that so far but I should and I'll try :)

Thanks for this update!

Well, ideally I would like us to give translators a month to update
their stuff. But I understand we're not living in an ideal world, so
well, fair enough, surely the doc update can be completed later.
So I would suggest:

 * prioritize doc updates that affect the code (e.g. the new Greeter's
   doc) or critical UX paths (e.g. discovering what's Tails,
   downloading, installing, upgrading, troubleshooting and basic
   usage) over doc about advanced or rarely useful topics (e.g.
   #12376, #12378);

 * communicate this to translators ASAP so they can get ready to
   deal with whatever timeline you think is realistic on your side.

Sounds good. You might want to use the new 3.0~rc1 target version to
encode this in Redmine.

I had a look at my tickets. I quite clearly won't be able to tackle all
my 3.0 and 3.0~rc1 ticket >= Elevated by May 15. Otherwise I would have
to spend nearly all of my Tails time on this and not on the many other
"not so urgent" stuff and that wouldn't be wise.

But most of them are documentation tickets and I think it's fine to
tackle them after May 15.

I spotted three tickets that are not pure doc and that I will prioritize
(in this order) and should get done before May 15:

  - #12368: Design UX for migrating databases to KeePassX 2
  - #11962: Update installation/upgrade process/tools/doc for amd64
  - #12441: Impossible to copy text from vim into X

And another ticket that could be handled by someone else, maybe you if
you feel its safer, but it shouldn't much work either so I'll very
probably be able to tackle it if prioritized wisely:

  - #11573: Update po_translatable_pages for Tails 3.0

How does it sound?

I will handle the rc one (fontconfig in reproducible ISO), and the 3.0
one is about the sponsor page. It's doable too.

I've created a 3.0~rc1 target version, so these tickets are on one of
these two Redmine views:

  https://labs.riseup.net/code/projects/tails/issues?query_id=242
  https://labs.riseup.net/code/projects/tails/issues?query_id=198

Feel free to use the new 3.0~rc1 target version to better express your
plans :)

Hi,

tl;dr: please clarify by the end of April if you can handle your 3.0
and priority >= Elevated Redmine tickets by May 15.

Almost all big changes we want to see in 3.0 are done, or close to be.
We'll release 3.0~beta4 on Wednesday, and likely a first release
candidate around May 20, after which only minimal fixes for important
problems will go in.

So far we shared the work very nicely among a number of people, and
it's been amazing. Now, the release will happen in 2 months, and
anonym and I are personally responsible for putting it in good shape,
so I'd like to know more precisely what the two of us will have to
deal with ourselves.

So, please have a look now at *your* Tails 3.0 tickets with priority
Elevated or higher, and think: if you can handle them by May 15, fine.
If there are some you think you will not be able to address by May 15,
then please de-assign you or at least clarify your plans on Redmine.

Bonus points if you drop me a line privately once you've gone through
this, so I know how to interpret any lack of action on Redmine :)

Thanks a lot in advance!
