Given that TorBirdy and TIMB (Tor Instant Messaging Bundle) probably have the same distribution restrictions as TBB, I was thinking that torbrowser-launcher can be extended to handle fetching and maintenance of those packages as well?\r\n\r\nThat would depend on how much effort is needed of course.\r\n\r\nThe point of this proposal is to turn torbrowser-launcher into a common platform, allowing easy and secure distribution of all TPO Tor-centric software suites for privacy oriented OSs such as TAILS, Whonix and any other distro that has it packaged in its repos.\r\n\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/micahflee/torbrowser-launcher/issues/comments/154941110","html_url":"https://github.com/micahflee/torbrowser-launcher/issues/145#issuecomment-154941110","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/micahflee/torbrowser-launcher/issues/145","id":154941110,"user":{"login":"micahflee","id":156128,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/156128?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee","html_url":"https://github.com/micahflee","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/micahflee/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-11-09T05:44:15Z","updated_at":"2015-11-09T05:44:15Z","body":"I like this idea. It doesn't seem like TorBirdy needs this, since Thunderbird has its own way of updating add-ons. However, I'd love to have something really similar to `torbrowser-launcher` for Tor Messenger, once it's stable and supports auto-updates, and has a release channel.\r\n\r\nI suspect it make be simpler and make more sense to just fork `torbrowser-launcher` to make, e.g. `tormessenger-launcher` in the future, though. They might support separate mirrors, and the settings GUI should perhaps look different.\r\n\r\nI'll keep this open though for discussion."}}
