Hi,

I have a question for you. Will you be strictly using GNOME-SHELL or
will the next TAILS include the Cinnamon panel? If that's the case, that
could fix the GNOME-Panel extension and bring the DE look even more than
Windows 10.

Ex. http://gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre2/171327-2.png

Cheers,
