SecureDrop Workstation Debian Buster transition status check-in

• Anyone building via make all will now get Stretch && Buster templates
• Client/export packaging done -- securedrop-proxy is next (maybe Jen/Allie will collaborate)
• We will have Stretch/Buster template coexist for the time being, since we may have similar migrations in prod

UX meeting returns this week. Agenda includes: Nina's neat Qubes design proposals

Docs i18n discussion

• It's possible to import RTD docs as POs into Weblate, see https://weblate.org/en/news/archive/translating-sphinx-documentation/
• Investigatory spike to be considered in future sprint to see if this is a viable option for SecureDrop docs
• Some discussion about whether Journalist/Source guide should live on SecureDrop.org -- downside: the site also doesn't have technical support for translations yet.
