* **Updated: 2.6.x release**
2.6.23 is going to be released today.
- It contains a number of small security fixes and bug fixes.
-
- # Backlog
-
- - **test latency and MTU in openvpn**
- A new feature is proposed for adding to master; ability to do latency and MTU tests in the OpenVPN protocol.
- This would allow for a client to for example select the best available server based on test results.
- This is currently under review: https://gerrit.openvpn.net/q/topic:%22oob-server-probe%22
- The design document is here: https://github.com/lstipakov/openvpn/blob/server-probe-design/design-server-probe.md
-
- - **community meetup 2026**
- Coordination is currently taking place here: https://community.openvpn.net/Meetups/2026-Paderborn
- The date is around 17 and 18 October, location in Paderborn, Germany.
- For the t-shirt we have some idea of what to do. Will check with designer if he can do it for us.
-
- - **2.7 security audit**
- The security audit was completed for 2.7.0 and results are available internally.
- We are working to publish this in an official blog post. ordex and novaflash are driving this in OpenVPN Inc. internally.
-
- * **Coordinating big changes**
- A related discussion is how to handle big changesets (e.g. currently the multipeer changes from plaisthos and the
- oob changes from lev). There was some unhappiness that these changesets are dropped without sufficient context and
- that makes it hard to keep track of all the developments. One advise is that developers that want to have big (or many)
- changes merged are encouraged to write a mail to the mailing list to provide a "cover letter" for the patch set and
- a convenient place to discuss the overall direction without getting bogged down in the discussion of individual changes.
- We have lost this practice since not generally using mail-based patchsets anymore. That can be also a good opportunity
- to point out dicussions happening in PRs for the RFC document.
+ It contains a number of small security fixes and bug fixes.
