# Topics

1. Sync up on OpenVPN 2.5 and 2.6
2. Release 2.5.2
   - The timeline is slightly unclear
   - CVE bug has morphed
3. Windows building with MSVC
   - Suggestion from Lev to move away from openvpn-build towards "something new"
4. Deprecate `--secret` mode in 2.6, remove in 2.7?
5. Containerized buildmaster and mattock's buildslaves
6. [Bridged Windows 10 Causes Sporadic Crashes](https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/ticket/1385)
7. Suggestion: Old Patches
   - [Patchwork series 874](https://patchwork.openvpn.net/project/openvpn2/list/?series=874&state=%2A&archive=both)
     - [Patch 1](https://patchwork.openvpn.net/patch/1384/) is already NAK'ed.
     - [Patch 2](https://patchwork.openvpn.net/patch/1383/) has no discussion. Reject, to close this series out?
   - [Patch 636](https://patchwork.openvpn.net/patch/636/)
     - Not ACK'ed, but is a positively-received single change that would increase DoS posture.
     - Appears simple but stalled / overlooked.
8. FIPS patches
   - Should be "integrated" by 06f6cf3ff850 (PRF patch)
