For float and DCO, lev has an idea on how to implement it but needs some agreement with ordex on adjustments for user space.
For the DCO related changes, DCO+TCP is improving. Epoch data keys still needs to be done, mssfix not planned yet.

## Backlog
-
-
- **forums situation**
-
The current forums are not maintained, not working well, and flooded with spam.
-
We have a contributor (minx) with web development experience willing to set up something new, but migrate the old forum contents.
-
To the question where the instance should be hosted, community indicates it should be under the community AWS infrastructure.
-
To the question what authentication system should be used, community indicates it should just be the built-in system from the forum solution itself.
-
-
- **snapshot releases via Chocolatey software**
-
mattock contacted the Chocolate package maintainer for OpenVPN and asked if he would be okay with publishing Windows MSI snapshots as well.
-
Seems like the maintainer is amenable to helping us achieve that goal.
-
-
- **2.7 security audit**
-
ordex mentioned that OTF offers the possibility to get a 3rd-party security audit for supported projects. So we will apply for that around or after the 2.7 release to review the latest code.
-
-
- **Tunnelcrack progress (see TunnelCrack community wiki article)**
-
Status update on TunnelCrack mitigations:
-
The tunnelcrack mitigation for Windows has gone in master, which will go to 2.7 release. There is the possibility for it to go to 2.6.x if we can find testers for this.
-
Windows, openvpn2: block-local merged to master, not to 2.6.x. openvpn3: in code review.
-
Linux, openvpn2: in progress. openvpn3: in progress.
-
macOS: to be determined.
-
iOS: to be determined.
-
Android: not vulnerable.
-
-
- **donation collection**
-
From earlier exploration it is clear that setting up a legal entity is not worth the expense at this point. We're just starting out with donations.
-
What we can do is start out with an existing company that can collect the money and puts it to good community use. ordex volunteers to take this on.
-
There are some options to consider. There may be existing solutions that we want to consider.
-
PayPal seems overly expensive with all their fees.
-
Stripe could be worth considering for credit card processing.
-
GitHub Sponsors was mentioned as a possible solution, this is worth investigating.
-
Open Collective was also mentioned, that needs some investigating how that exactly would work for us.
-
-
- **Static-key mini how-to is outdated.**
-
This page is outdated badly: https://openvpn.net/community-resources/static-key-mini-howto/
-
company will send this to tech writer to redo based on https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/blob/master/doc/man-sections/example-fingerprint.rst info.
