Tails Bulletins

You now have the ability to use deep text search in your reports. All tickets reported by a particular person containing the phrase ‘wool socks’? You got it.

Enjoy.

As I’m currently working on a revamp of Tails, I decided to communicate to you all through the status of each Feature Request.

• ‘New’ requests are still under consideration.
• ‘In progress’ requests have been accepted. Congrats!
• ‘On hold’ requests have been accepted in principle but have been deliberately pushed back for one reason or another.
• ‘Discarded’ requests have been declined for one reason or another (check the comments)
• ‘Completed’ tickets have been completed in our development environment. They may not be deployed as yet.

Just cleared it all out. Will be adding measures for dealing with spam (along with some other items) this week.

Hey gang,

Please do enjoy the new, feature-frozen release of Tails. I’d love for you to generate many hundreds of error reports for me to sift through.

Here’s what you got for your cash:

Stuff you can see:

• Themes! You can set a theme per project, and a theme for your profile too. When you invite a new user to one of your projects, that person’s theme will be set to match your project for a totally branded experience.
• New reports system with saved searches. You’ll love this.
• Edit and preview your comments
• Preview your bulletins before you save them
• Email notifications! Hit ‘my account’ and then the appropriate tab to set your preferred alerts.
• Fancy new interface behaviours
• Improved inline editors

Stuff you can’t:

• Massively improved DB structure and ORM layer
• Far greater use of JS, so we don’t have to serve loads of unnecessary tosh into the DOM just in case you want it
• Waaaay better tag handling
• Improved security handlers and session handling across the board
• Updated to take advantage of new framework features

Enjoy!

Hi beta lovers,

The much-overdue release candidate of Tails will be released to you all for the holidays. You’ll all have a while to play with it and find any holes in the release before… christ… we launch. Lots of great new features coming!
