Yesterday: Worked on replies in the SD client
Today: Working on replies in the SD client
Blockers: There are errors in the SD API that severly hinder the ability to send/receive replies. These are: - #3918 (see PR #3919) - #3915 (see PR #3915)
In short, we don't know the reply UUID in order to be able to track a reply locally, so we do a "re-sync the world" in an attempt to fetch it. However, the API had a bug that sends us data the client doesn't know how to parse. We could shim a hack into it for now, but this is actually bad and the issue #3918 will break prod instances and it needs to be fix asap. I feel this warrants a point release.
Yesterday: Fixed Qubes issues, got securedrop-workstation running and hooked up to personal instance
