I'd like to just have some ACKs from some Tails
developers/contributors/blah first too so I'm not taking this decision
on my own (still, I don't expect any objections, but who know?). Sorry
for not making that clear. It's also a good point that we should
consider moving the 1.4 release date too now.
So, the proposals are to do the following to sync the Tails release
cycles with the Firefox release cycles:
* Move the release date for Tails 1.3.1 to 2015-03-31.
* Move the release date for Tails 1.4 to 2015-05-12.
Any objections to any of these?
Cheers!
