10 * Tails 3.14 is [[scheduled for May 21|contribute/calendar]].
16 Team|contribute/working_together/roles/foundations_team]] met for
17 a sprint focused on porting Tails to Debian 10 (Buster):
18 [report](https://lists.autistici.org/message/20190408.075929.1c2952c0.en.html),
20 steps](https://lists.autistici.org/message/20190429.091241.82e34497.en.html).
21 - We finalized our criteria for including dictionaries, fonts and language packs,
22 which will be reflected in Tails 3.14.
23 - We prototyped a USB image with Secure Boot support and GRUB, in order
24 to better understand what implementation difficulties we should expect.
26 [submitted](https://ikiwiki.info/todo/_Add_ikiwiki_PO-Plugin_to_ignore_languages/)
27 to ikiwiki upstream a branch that makes it keep PO files up-to-date
28 for a set of languages that are not ready to be enabled and visible
29 on the live website yet. This will allow us to merge into our main
30 Git repository changes made via our upcoming Weblate-based
31 translation platform, which supports languages whose
32 work-in-progress translation is not ready for prime-time yet.
34 [uploaded](https://tracker.debian.org/news/1038188/accepted-gnome-shell-3302-6-source-into-unstable/)
35 to Debian a few fixes for regressions in the GNOME on-screen keyboard.
