33
34
- **Status of PoC Using Gerrit for Code Review:**
35
- Last item discussed was buildbot and Gerrit interaction not working due to an SSL issue - when cron2 has time he'll take a look.
36
37
- **Security Assessment of OpenVPN2 Codebase:**
38
- There are 2 items not directly related to the codebase that we're arguing against putting into the report.
39
- They're both 'informational' level so not particularly worrisome, but in our opinion, weird to have in the report.
40
- Dazo will send an updated version to cron2 for review.
41
42
- **IPv6 to Community:**
43
- IPv6 is now enabled on openvpn.net.

51

52
- Company is trying to get to SOC2 compliance.
53

62
- **SBOM Topic:**
63
- Cron2 was asked if OpenVPN has a software bill of materials. Answer was no.
64
- Coincidentally, in OpenVPN Inc a security requirement is to have an SBOM so this is on our list of things to do.
65
- When we pick up this task we can coordinate on it.
