Topics and Call-outs

  • Translation Tuesday

    • Erin found a reviewer for Simplified Chinese

  • Workstation VM naming discussion

Background:

  • Even in a "launch via desktop icon" happy path, users will see names like sd-svs in window titles (!), launch/shutdown notifications, device menu, Qubes updater GUI (if we use it), ...;
  • Less happy paths and error messages are likely to arise during beta;
  • Some users are likely to explore the system on their own,;
  • Post-beta, we may want users to interact with Qubes beyond an icon launch path.

Naming spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1G1aE6lJD0D6ksIqJuP-8e3iw_1VEzRiUX_zIj41yA8c/edit#gid=0 Issue: https://github.com/freedomofpress/securedrop-workstation/issues/285

We won't get to resolution today, but let's check in on spreadsheet and see if we can get closer to consensus by tomorrow.
