| 8 | - **Updated: OpenVPN community meetup 2025** |
|||
| 9 | https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/CommunityMeetup2025 |
|||
| 10 | When: 25 and 26 october (Saturday and Sunday), with travel days on the Friday before and Monday after. |
|||
| 11 | Where: Naples, Italy. |
|||
| 12 | Meeting room: https://www.hotelparadisonapoli.it/en/home-page.aspx |
|||
| 13 | Hotel: Paradiso Napoli Hotel. |
|||
| 14 | Beer: yes. |
|||
| 15 | T-shirts: yes. |
|||
| 16 | Invites were sent to openvpn-devel and some selected individuals. If we missed anyone please reach out. |
|||
| 17 | Current status is we have asked Matt the designer to come up with a t-shirt design. |
|||
| 18 | ||||
| 19 | - **Updated: Release 2.7** |
|||
| 20 | OpenVPN 2.7 beta1 was released on 4th of September. |
|||
| 21 | The intention is to follow up with OpenVPN 2.7 beta2 on 18th of September. |
|||
| 22 | ||||
| 23 | - **forums situation** |
|||
| 24 | minx offered to set up a new forum and help us migrate old data to it. |
|||
| 25 | We have a new setup with flarum at a hidden location and we're trying to get the old forums data in there. |
|||
| 26 | The tool for that called nitroporter had some difficulty, partially because the database is just so huge, but there is some progress. |
|||
| 27 | Sad news; minx left openvpn inc. however, he does still want to try to get this working and is helping us still. |
|||
| 28 | Once the migration is done, we can run some tests, and see if it meets our standards. Then we can plan a cutover date. |
|||
| 29 | To the question where the instance should be hosted, community indicates it should be under the community AWS infrastructure. |
|||
| 30 | To the question what authentication system should be used, community indicates it should just be the built-in system from the forum solution itself. |
|||
| 31 | ||||
| 32 | - **wolfSSL license changed from gplv2 to gplv3** |
|||
| 33 | The release notes of wolfSSL indicate the license changed to GPLv3. This basically makes wolfSSL incompatible in regards to licensing with OpenVPN. |
|||
| 34 | An issue was opened on github and we received a response to give them some time to come up with a solution https://github.com/wolfSSL/wolfssl/issues/9143 |
|||
| 35 | ||||
| 36 | - **t_server and t_client testing framework** |
|||
| 37 | mattock reports progress on building automated testing environment for really old OpenVPN versions. |
|||
| 38 | This covers tests for versions going back to 2.2. |
|||
| 39 | ||||
| 40 | - **push_update / live route updates** |
|||
| 41 | Client-side support for push_update is now merged. |
|||
| 42 | For server-side support, company did QA on it with openvpn2 but found some missing features that are being added now. |
|||
| 43 | Client-side support made it into alpha3. |
|||
| 44 | ||||
| 45 | - **format code using clang formatting** |
|||
| 46 | It seems prudent to do this before the real 2.7 release. |
|||
| 47 | It was discussed and there's some additional work to be paid either on reviewer or submitter side. |
|||
| 48 | Strategy will be; get all code into beta1, collect bugfixes, reformat everything, then beta2. |
|||
| 49 | Collect more bugfixes and then do release 2.7.0 and branch it off into its own release branch. |
|||
| 50 | ||||
| 51 | - **cve.mitre.org deprecation notice** |
|||
| 52 | 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. |
|||
| 53 | novaflash made an internal company ticket to update links on the main site. |
|||
| 54 | novaflash search/replaced all the CVE links on community wiki to the new address. |
