• Updated: openvpn releases
  Currently we're handling a number of reported issues, some security related.
  An openvpn release 2.6.21 and 2.7.5 in about 2 weeks from now is our current estimated target release date.

• Updated: community meetup 2026
  Coordination is currently taking place here: https://community.openvpn.net/Meetups/2026-Paderborn
  The date is around 17 and 18 October, location in Paderborn, Germany. ordex has volunteered to update and polish the page, fill in some further details.

• New: mailing list adjustment
  On openvpn.net some tighter security on DMARC settings is being implemented.
  Sourceforge mailing lists tend to forward emails with the original from header of the sender - in case of @openvpn.net that won't work anymore.
  Sourceforge will now send from its own mailing address email address instead and keep the original sender address in reply-to header.

• New: ordex suggested to bring patchwork back
  Currently djpig and ordex are looking into it. This would be just an additional tool, not replacing what we have.
