What is missing?
- Interactive service
- AEAD
- The MacOS X keychain patch
  - The patch is ready, but there are Makefile changes which need work
- Minor tunings to openvpn-gui.nsi / openvpn-build integration
  - The actual openvpn-gui.exe is not signed, can be fixed with some refactoring of openvpn-build
Candidates for inclusion
- Replacement for Windows service wrapper (openvpnserv.exe)
  - Facts
    - It sucks badly
    - People complain and have complained about it more or less constantly for years
    - It is getting more broken with new Windows releases
      - Apparently it works really poorly on Windows 8 and later
    - Current developers do not know how to fix it
  - A better alternative might be nssm.exe
    - Generic service manager
    - Code under public domain
    - Actively maintained
    - openvpn-user discussion
