You can help Tails! The first alpha for the upcoming version 3.0 is out. We
are very excited and cannot wait to hear what you think about it :)

# What's new in 3.0?

Tails 3.0 will be the first version of Tails based on Debian 9 (Stretch). As
such, it upgrades essentially all included software.

It also requires a 64-bit computer, and GNOME Shell is now configured to use
its default black theme.

Technical details of all the changes are listed in the [Changelog](https
://git-tails.immerda.ch/tails/plain/debian/changelog?h=feature/stretch).

# How to test Tails 3.0~alpha1?

**Keep in mind that this is a test image.** We tested that it is not broken in obvious ways, but it might still contain undiscovered issues.

But test wildly!

If you find anything that is not working as it should, please report to us
[tails-testers@???](mailto:tails-testers@boum.org).

Bonus points if you first check if it is a [known issue of this
release](https://tails.boum.org/news/index.en.html#known_issues) or a
[longstanding known
issue](https://tails.boum.org/support/known_issues/index.en.html).

## Download and install

[Tails 3.0~alpha1 ISO image](http://dl.amnesia.boum.org/tails/alpha/tails-
amd64-3.0~alpha1/tails-amd64-3.0~alpha1.iso) [OpenPGP
signature](https://tails.boum.org/torrents/files/tails-
amd64-3.0~alpha1.iso.sig)

You cannot install Tails 3.0~alpha1 from Tails 2.x. It is impossible as well
to upgrade to Tails 3.0~alpha1 from Tails 2.x. So, either install or upgrade
from a non-Tails system, or start Tails 3.0~alpha1 from DVD and then clone it
to a USB stick.

To install 3.0~alpha1, follow our usual [installation
instructions](https://tails.boum.org/install/index.en.html), skipping the
**Download and verify** step.

If you find anything that is not working as it should, please report to us on
[tails-testers@???](mailto:tails-testers@boum.org).

Bonus points if you first check if it is a [known issue of this
release](https://tails.boum.org/news/index.en.html#known_issues) or a
[longstanding known
issue](https://tails.boum.org/support/known_issues/index.en.html).
