I think that it’s not worth the effort because even if your computer was out when XP was the usual microsoft OS, running a newer version of microsoft OS is not strange enough to offer several windows camouflage.

And I’m pretty sure you can remove your “made for win XP” sticker ;)

I’m tempted to give up on improving current camouflage and focus on Jessie-based Tails. Does anyone disagrees.

#14 Updated by BitingBird 2014-11-27 07:30:40

I haven’t heard any users complaints about the camouflage, so I’d say it’s good enough (maybe frontdesk people will disagree, I only see irc).

ACK.

Let’s close all the wheezy-specific subtasks then!

You said you would not work on windows camouflage for Jessie, should I de-assign you from all those tickets ?

The jessie ticket are assigned to me as I’m supposed to take care of potential volonteers. I’m not sure these are related but they surely are not high priority for me.

I don’t think the Jessie camouflage has much to do with this ticket, if any at all.

As camouflage has still not come back, I will close all tickets related to it. Reopen if necessary.
