- **Updated: Github repo for open sourced MCP project**
c49e59 novaflash 2025-08-13 11:55:45 33
MCP is a protocol that AI agents can speak, like a universal API, so that if other programs also speak MCP, then AI can work with it.
34
Company is going to do some MCP project to work with CloudConnexa, maybe in the future Access Server.
35
They want to open source this and ask for a repo to publish it in.
36
This is a bit similar to this project; https://github.com/OpenVPN/terraform-provider-cloudconnexa which was started elsewhere but got published to open source.

Seems like community has no objections to this, so will relay that approval back to company.

- **push_update / live route updates**
40
Client-side support for push_update is now merged.
41
For server-side support, company did QA on it with openvpn2 but found some missing features that are being added now.
42
Client-side support made it into alpha3.
43
44
- **format code using clang formatting**
45
It seems prudent to do this before the real 2.7 release.
46
It was discussed and there's some additional work to be paid either on reviewer or submitter side.
47
Strategy will be; get all code into beta1, collect bugfixes, reformat everything, then beta2.
48
Collect more bugfixes and then do release 2.7.0 and branch it off into its own release branch.

- **cve.mitre.org deprecation notice**
51
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.
52
novaflash made an internal company ticket to update links on the main site.
53
novaflash search/replaced all the CVE links on community wiki to the new address.
