6 * Investigate dropping the Cookie Monster browser extension
7 ([[!tails_ticket 6595]])
8 * Persistent folder should not be writable with read-only persistence
9 ([[!tails_ticket 6585]])
10 * Volunteers to handle broken windows this month
11 * Planning a monthly low-hanging fruits or review'n'merge meeting
13 Investigate dropping the Cookie Monster browser extension
14 ---------------------------------------------------------
16 See [[!tails_ticket 6595]].
18 Decision: intrigeri pinged the thread on -dev, as we lack inputs of use cases
21 Persistent folder should not be writable with read-only persistence
22 -------------------------------------------------------------------
24 See [[!tails_ticket 6585]].
26 Decision: add a note on the ticket, saying we agreed here that this doesn't look
27 like a bug. Then, unless the discussion is (re)started on tails-dev, we'll close
28 the ticket after next month's meeting
30 Create a logo for Tails
31 -----------------------
33 See [[!tails_ticket 5797]].
35 BitingBird updated the ticket with the clarification that we discussed:
37 * The logo has to be published under a free licence, compatible with GPL3+
38 * Proportions: ratio between 1:1 and 3:1
39 * If writing, then: Tails (uppercase first letter, the rest in lowercase)
40 * Colors: until now we stole the purple+green from Tor, but it doesn't have to
41 * rather not re-use tor/debian images, but evoking ok (tor colors...)
42 * Visual + idea: secrecy / privacy / anonymity / mystery ; simplicity: tails is
44 * little bit serious, but not sad
45 * The logo should make nice stickers / t-shirts, that people want to have on
46 their computers or themselves
47 * We like the idea of the tail, the cat or the mask that was used by Incognito
48 in the past. Other ideas that meet the requirements are welcome too.
50 Volunteers to handle broken windows this month
51 ----------------------------------------------
55 Our "broken windows" (https://tails.boum.org/contribute/roadmap/#Broken%20window),
56 are tasks or issues that, ideally,
57 should have been resolved a while ago, and seeing them still causing
58 problems is demotivating.
60 We try to spend a week focusing on broken windows each month.
61 Recently, most core contributors have been focusing on broken windows
62 all the time, so we skipped them in practice.
64 However, if new contributors want to play with us, it may make sense
65 to revive these specific times.
69 Sajolida will send an email to Kevin about Tails clock.
72 Monthly low-hanging fruits meeting
73 ----------------------------------
77 Low-hanging fruits meeting: spend a while together on many small tasks
78 that take less than 2 hours each, and are waiting in our TODO list for
81 During these meetings, we exceptionally allow ourselves to do the
82 review & merge process on IRC instead of the usual email -based
83 workflow, so this should all go pretty smoothly. Then, we report back
86 We also use these meetings to review stuff that's waiting in
91 Next LHF session will take place on the 24th february, from 10AM to 2PM CET.
92 It will be more oriented on hard testing of new features, as the freeze for 0.23
93 will be close, and there will be big new ones.
