If we feel the -rc is as good (or even better) for Tails users than the -stable is, then I think it shows our policy would be enhanced if it were changed to "latest stable or RC release, as we think is best for Tails users at freeze time". I could easily back it off if others have problems with it, though. > Or am I missing something? Is the current inability to query non-A > records breaking something for the average Tails user? I fully agree the average Tails user uses the WWW, does not care about the Internet, and thus does not care about non-A records. For ethical reasons, I'd rather not to see Tails contribute too much in this trend, and I'd love to see Tails able to perform basic Internet non-WWW tasks such as resolving MX requests. OTOH, I've been living with this inability since Tails beginnings, so solving it is for sure no emergency at all :) Bye, -- intrigeri <[email protected]> | GnuPG key @ https://gaffer.ptitcanardnoir.org/intrigeri/intrigeri.asc | OTR fingerprint @ https://gaffer.ptitcanardnoir.org/intrigeri/otr.asc | So what? _______________________________________________ tails-dev mailing list [email protected] https://boum.org/mailman/listinfo/tails-dev
