[Tails-dev] Preparing the next monthly report

2016-05-31 Thread sajolida
We should start writing the monthly report for last month.

A blueprint with the current report, who volunteered to curate it, and
tips on how to fill it can be found on:

https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/monthly_report/

But *you* should make sure that the cool stuff that *you* did will be
mentioned in there. The person who volunteered to curate the report will
help coordinate, patch, and rephrase things but will not be able to go
through every possible source of information (including what's in your
head).

Keeping in mind that these reports are targeted at the other Tails
contributors, people contributing to related projects, expert users, and
Tails advocates, so they can be useful, for example, to:

- Give others a quick overview of what you are doing and where your work
  can be found.
- Get help or feedback from others.
- Give a sense of the very diverse contributions that are valuable to
  the project and encourage more people to join in.
- Show off how cool we are!

The scope of the ticket has just now been changed from "create a Tails
template" to "[META] Tails-like functionality in Qubes".

To illustrate what a Qubes Tails template would mean... In comparative
terms...

- better integration: comes with Qubes tools installed by default
[comparable to a VM with VirtualBox guest additions installed by default
or not for mouse integration, clipboard sharing, seamless mode and so forth]

- easier installation: installs Tails on Qubes by using the system
package manager [comparable to downloading a VirtualBox image from the
internet vs downloading/inserting a Tails DVD manually into VirtualBox]

[Currently Tails can only be run as a HVM in Qubes: It can be roughly
compared to booting Tails inside VirtualBox without having VirtualBox
guest additions existing]

Cheers,
Patrick

Here you go. There are extremely minimal on purpose. The public target
being people who already know OpenPGP but might need guidance on how to
perform this kind of verification.

[Tails-dev] Tails template for Qubes

I just wanted to let you know that people from Qubes started a ticket
about having a Tails template for Qubes. I never used Qubes myself and
barely understand what this means but I'll follow the ticket and maybe
others interested in Qubes should do to: DrWhax, anonym?

Re: [Tails-dev] Making Tails 2.4 more accessible

2016-05-31 Thread Spencer

Hi,



Nathan Hale:
It would be nice if the next Tails were distributed
more like the previous versions



This is true and would make for a wonderful experience (:



There's a discussion on USENET



I will try to find it (:



u:
meantime: https://tails.boum.org/install/download.



Forced compliance by threat of the clearnet; this is broken ):

Wordlife,
Spencer
