| 8 | - **Updated: Release 2.7** |
|||
| 9 | OpenVPN 2.7 beta2 was released 25 September. |
|||
| 10 | It looks like next up will be a beta3, after which a stable release is expected. |
|||
| 11 | ||||
| 12 | - **New, closed: verify signature page** |
|||
| 13 | During the revamp of the community pages on the main openvpn.net website the instructions on how to verify the GPG signature was lost. |
|||
| 14 | We brought it back under the community.openvpn.net wiki's downloads page here; https://community.openvpn.net/Downloads/Verify%20signature |

| 89e5d6 | novaflash | 2025-10-01 12:37:21 | 19 | - **Updated: wolfSSL license changed from gplv2 to gplv3** |
| 9e79a3 | novaflash | 2025-10-01 11:56:22 | 20 | The release notes of wolfSSL indicate the license changed to GPLv3. This basically makes wolfSSL incompatible in regards to licensing with OpenVPN. |
| 21 | We reached out to WolfSSL and we got back a response indicating that other parties have also expressed similar concerns and an exception may be considered. |
|||
| 4cbbd8 | novaflash | 2025-10-01 12:43:04 | 22 | We are still waiting for a resolution, it has been several weeks now. We reached out again to wolfSSL. |
| f235eb | novaflash | 2025-10-01 12:43:15 | 23 | If there is no resolution by 15th of October, then we will proceed with our OpenVPN 2.7 release plans without wolfSSL support. |

|||
| 35 | ||||
| 36 | - **forums situation** |
|||
| 37 | minx offered to set up a new forum and help us migrate old data to it. |
|||
| 38 | We have a new setup with flarum at a hidden location and we're trying to get the old forums data in there. |
|||
| 39 | The tool for that called nitroporter had some difficulty, partially because the database is just so huge, but there is some progress. |
|||
| 40 | Sad news; minx left openvpn inc. however, he does still want to try to get this working and is helping us still. |
|||
| 41 | Once the migration is done, we can run some tests, and see if it meets our standards. Then we can plan a cutover date. |
|||
| 42 | To the question where the instance should be hosted, community indicates it should be under the community AWS infrastructure. |
|||
| 9deb3e | novaflash | 2025-10-08 11:59:56 | 43 | To the question what authentication system should be used, community indicates it should just be the built-in system from the forum solution itself. |
