Hi,
Here are a few highlights about what we did in May, among many other
things:
*
We implemented many improvements to the Tor Connection assistant. This
makes is much easier for people in Asia to circumvent censorship. For
details, see the Tails 5.1 release notes [1].
*
We wrote a new homepage for the _Unsafe Browser_ when you are not
connected to the Tor network yet. This new version makes it easier to
understand how to sign in to the network using a captive portal.
*
We started organized training and usability tests sessions for August in
Brazil.
*
Tails 5.0 was released on May 3 [2]. It was the first version of Tails
based on Debian 11 (Bullseye) and brought new versions of a lot of the
software included in Tails and new OpenPGP tools.
*
We started evaluating Mirrorbits to manage our download mirror pool. On
top of decreasing the required maintenance work, this should make
downloads of Tails faster and more reliable.
*
Tails has been started more than 769 997 times this month. This makes
24 838 boots a day on average.
Cheers!
