# IrcMeetings

## Pending Buildbot PRs
- [Add license file (BSD-2-Clause)](https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-buildbot/pull/33)
- [Only build openvpn when changing source code or build files](https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-buildbot/pull/31)
  - The same mechanism can be used to do "special builds" like "only do documentation linting/validation documentation changes"
- [Buildbot: do not run the full test suite if smoketests fail](https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-buildbot/pull/32)
  - djpig's and mattock's tests indicate that it may be necessary to remove the buildmaster sqlite database (safe, but we lose history) when this change is merged - otherwise smoke tests would not run first

## Buildbot
- Debian packaging is "ready" since a long time ago, but packages are not published anywhere
- Discussion:
  - Mattock will resume work on this
  - Mattock will do a PoC of [aptly](https://www.aptly.info/)
    - Test if aptly would be better than freight which we have on build.openvpn.net for buildbot apt repos and/or official releases
  - Agreed that using the same GPG signing key as on build.openvpn.net makes sense

## Wiki migration
- Xwiki and Wiki.js have been running for a few weeks now
- Can we move on to the next step?
  - Pick one of the wikis now?
  - Do more research on the wiki(s)?
  - Decide to do nothing for now?
- Discussion:
  - Wiki.js seemed to be everyone's favorite
  - Mattock will move forward with Wiki.js (unless somebody strongly objects by next community meeting)
  - A new server is required eventually, but for now Samuli can use OTF AWS account for Wiki.js testing

## Server-side testing
- We agreed to schedule a separate meeting to think about server-side testing
- What would be a good time?
- Discussion:
  - cron2 wasn't in the meeting, again.

## Easy-rsa in Windows installers
- easy-rsa has included pre-built Windows binaries for a long time. But with Windows 11 they do not seem to work correctly anymore in some cases. There is a plan to switch to a current version of busybox.exe instead. But the required changes to the Windows installer raise the question whether it is actually worth the effort. Does anyone use the included easy-rsa on Windows?
- Discussion:
  - Decided to ask on openvpn-users ml and forums if people really care about easy-rsa in the Windows installers
  - Depending on feedback we might drop it from the installer
  - One alternative is to use "Windows Subsystem for Linux" which enables users to run easy-rsa in a Linux environment on Windows

## 2.6.9
- Release was done on Monday
