It sounds good to take a decision early April. If it helps I could join
the discussion as well.

If this discussion leads to a removal of Electrum from Tails, we should
also discuss whether we want to document how to use the AppImage on our
website (which is pretty easy).

During our donation campaign 27% of our donations were in bitcoins.

These were maybe not all people who would stop using Tails if we remove
Electrum, but at least people having bitcoins and interested in Tails.
