| 8 | - **Updated: Release 2.7** |
|||
| 9 | A 2.7 alpha3 release went out last week. |
|||
| 10 | This includes a fix for a couple of rare crashes on Windows DCO driver. This was backported to the installer for 2.6.14. |
|||
| 39182b | novaflash | 2025-08-06 12:25:21 | 11 | Another further small fix (driver fix for recursive routing issue) will be included in 2.6.14 Windows installer version i004 later today. |
| 239092 | novaflash | 2025-08-06 11:19:54 | 12 | The FreeBSD patch for float is now in review. |
| 39182b | novaflash | 2025-08-06 12:25:21 | 13 | The tentative plan for release is now: |
| 14 | August 20: beta1 |
|||
| 15 | September 3: release candidate 1 |
|||
| 16 | September 17: stable release |
|||
| 17 | These are some known remaining tasks: |
|||
| c05700 | novaflash | 2025-08-06 12:58:07 | 18 | Epoch data keys for Linux DCO and Windows DCO - can be done in a minor release after 2.7.0. |
| 19 | Small fix to check message id/acked ids too when doing sessionid cookie checks - should go into 2.7.0. |
|||
| 20 | PUSH_UPDATE review and server-side support - cron2 wants to discuss changes. |
|||
| 21 | mi prefix handling, int/uint fixes, and the new 'real route' gateway handling |
|||
| 239092 | novaflash | 2025-08-06 11:19:54 | 22 | |
| 23 | - **push_update / live route updates** |
|||
| 24 | Client-side support for push_update is now merged. |
|||
| 25 | For server-side support, company did QA on it with openvpn2 but found some missing features that are being added now. |
|||
| 39182b | novaflash | 2025-08-06 12:25:21 | 26 | Client-side support made it into alpha3. |

| 28 | - **OpenVPN community meetup 2025** |
|||
| 29 | https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/CommunityMeetup2025 |
|||
| 30 | When: weekend of 25 and 26 october. |
|||
| 31 | Where: Napoli, Italy. |
|||
| 32 | Meeting room: it looks like this may be it; https://www.hotelparadisonapoli.it/en/home-page.aspx we will work to get budget cleared for this. |
|||
| 33 | Hotel: probably Paradiso Napoli. |
|||
| 34 | Beer: yes. |
|||
| 35 | T-shirts: yes. |
|||
| 36 | ||||
| 37 | - **format code using clang formatting** |
|||
| 38 | It seems prudent to do this before the real 2.7 release. |
|||
| 39 | It was discussed and there's some additional work to be paid either on reviewer or submitter side. |
|||
| 40 | Strategy will be; get all code into beta1, collect bugfixes, reformat everything, then beta2. |
|||
| 41 | Collect more bugfixes and then do release 2.7.0 and branch it off into its own release branch. |
|||
| 42 | ||||
| 43 | - **cve.mitre.org deprecation notice** |
|||
| 44 | The MITRE CVE site we are linking to for all CVE record references has a deprecation notice. Instead cve.org is being advised as the site to use from now on. |
|||
| 45 | novaflash made an internal company ticket to update links on the main site. |
|||
| 46 | novaflash search/replaced all the CVE links on community wiki to the new address. |
