Pending Buildbot PRs
Discussion:
- Plan to roll out the branch on buildbot-host-staging and test, especially against Gerrit. We can use the test "fake-ovpn" repository for this purpose.
- uddr proposed to extend the filter for Gerrit with additional checks, which should happen in a separate PR.
Server-side testing
- Discussion: Meeting time agreed for next Tuesday at 14:00 CET
Easy-rsa in Windows installers
- Request for feedback was posted on the -user mailing list and in the forum.
Discussion:
- Feedback indicates that easy-rsa is used on Windows, not necessarily for OpenVPN, but generally for managing PKI.
- It might be feasible to unbundle easy-rsa from the OpenVPN installer, though there is demand for a Windows version of it.
- For version 2.6.x, we should replace the old bundled executables with a recent version of busybox.exe. djpig will investigate whether to trust pre-compiled binaries (e.g., frippery.org/busybox) or build our own from source.
- For version 2.7, we could consider unbundling and creating a separate installer for easy-rsa. Further discussion needed on how this would be implemented.
- Some suggest using WSL (versions 1 and 2) as a solution for users, but there's skepticism about its feasibility for users not already using it.
