Welcome to the sixth issue of Tor Weekly News in 2014, the weekly
newsletter that covers what is happening in the XXX Tor community.
-New Release of XXX
-------------------
+Tails 0.22.1 is out
+-------------------
-XXX: cite specific release date, numbers, and developers responsible
+The Tails team has cut its 36th release on February 4th. Their live
+operating system based on Debian continue to provide anonymity by
+ensuring that all outgoing connections are routed through Tor, and
+privacy by ensuring that no traces are left without the user's
+knowledge.
-XXX: details about release
+Tails 0.22.1 [XXX] contains security fixes [XXX] to Firefox, NSS and
+Pidgin. It also brings an updated Linux kernel and several fixes to
+regressions and small issues.
- [XXX]:
+While advertised as a minor version, the new version brings a major
+usability improvement as incremental upgrades are now enabled.
+Previously, upgrading Tails basically meant installing Tails again
+by downloading the image, and putting it on a DVD or a USB stick. Users
+of persistence then had to use this new medium to upgrade the stick with
+their data. A tedious process, to say the least. Now, with incremental
+upgrades, Tails users with USB sticks will be prompted to perform a few
+clicks, wait, and reboot to get their system up-to-date.
+
+One usability change might surprise long time Tails users: the browser
+now has to be manually opened when Tor has successfully reached the
+network.
+
+As always, be sure to upgrade [XXX]! Users of Tails 0.22 on USB sticks
+can easily do so by reaching out for the “Tails Upgrader” application in
+the “Tails” menu.
