This should actually be done for the release of 2.0 (without the need to be merged into 2.0) so that we can have a working PoC for 2.2.

I think I’ve mislead you somewhat early today, when I asked you to update your Icedove tickets. Sorry about that!

According to the timeline proposed on https://mailman.boum.org/pipermail/tails-icedove/2015-December/000108.html, we want a working PoC of the wizard ready during the 2.0 release cycle, so I think this ticket needs to stay on the 2.0 board for now.

Another option, which is rather what I was implicitly suggesting, would be to make it explicit (by creating new tickets) that the PoC is for 2.0, and that the goal is to have it merged for 2.2.

Given the patch that adds SOCKS support to the guessing part of the automatic configuration, I think we are done here.

My understanding is that this has been fixed, and will be shipped to users as part of the branch for Feature #6154. If I’m correct, then please close this ticket as resolved (it’s a part of Feature #6154, and it’s not a bug that affects any released version of Tails, so no need to go through “Fix committed” :)
