Subject: [Tails-ux] Installation Assistant (+ ISO Verification Extension + Tails Install in Debian): release schedule
Hi,

I'm putting tails-ux in copy but the implications of these mostly affect
development work so please answer on tails-dev.

Last week-end we did intensive testing of the current prototype for the
Installation Assistant. We spent 18 hours testing the whole process with
16 people and many findings came out of it.

You can check the rainbow table [1] if you want to see our findings.
Today I'll also write a more specific email about the work left to be
done on the extension.

Then we decided on the release schedule for the whole thing. And I want
to check with Girgio and u whether that's fine with them. We thought
about doing:

- A beta release in time for 1.8 (December 15). The assistant would be
advertised in the release notes, maybe tweet about it and send a mail to
tails-testers. That's tracked by #8590 and subtasks.

- A final release in time for or before (January 26). The assistant
would then replace the current installation instructions and be linked
from the current "Download" button on the website (renamed "Install").
That's tracked by #8592 and subtasks.

So by December 15 we would need to have:

- The Debian and Ubuntu packages ready in backports and PPA. So we can
do the beta with the final instructions for them.
- A version of the extension uploaded to addons.mozilla.org so we can
point to it instead of maone.net.

Does that seems feasible to you?
