See 
https://tails.boum.org/news/Tails_3.0_will_require_a_64-bit_processor/index.en.html#index3h1

In short: it provides significant security benefits to a large number
of users at the expense of dropping support for a marginal (and
declining) number of users.

[Tails-dev] Tails 3.0 release

2017-06-07 Thread x3 dre
Hi 

I'm looking around to find out information why, tails is going to dropping 32 
bit cpu's ?

As I know many people around the world that rely on older 32 cpu chipset and 
other distributions like tails and others.

It just seems those poorer people, will be locked out because of cost, and 
their pockets not to be able to purchase secondhand 64 bit machines, which 
could be a few months salary in some cases, especially in countries that are 
dictatorial and where corrupt govs operate.

Can you tell me the rationale behind this move?

One billion congrats to the CI team for that!

[Tails-dev] Jenkins build/test failure notifications are back!

2017-06-07 Thread bertagaz
Hi,

You may remember we had to disable our CI notifications due to too many
false positives. That lead us realizing that most of the developers were
simply ignoring them all.

Since then we have made progress on our test suite to get it more
robust, as well as in our CI infra.

So we are putting notifications back on track but with some limitations:
only branches for which tickets are set "Ready for QA" in Redmine will
have notifications enabled, at least in a first step.

We will track closely how many notifications were sent, and how many of
them shouldn't have. We also count on you to tell us when you start
ignoring this notifications again. Feel free to communicate with us if
you have any question, doubt or concerns, at tails...@boum.org (OpenPGP
public key is available on keyservers).

bert.
