• Updated: openvpn releases
  Currently we're handling a number of reported issues, some security related.
  The openvpn release 2.6.21 and 2.7.5 estimated release date is currently still July 1st.
  Some important fixes will be backported to the 2.5 branch but since those are out of support there will be official 2.5.x release.

• Updated: ordex suggested to bring patchwork back
  This is now up and running. This will be used as just an additional tool.

• New: test latency and MTU in openvpn
  A new feature is proposed for adding to master; ability to do latency and MTU tests in the OpenVPN protocol.
  Idea is to allow to do a 'best server selection' type of logic, in case there are multiple servers available to connect to.
  RFC PR is at https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-rfc/pull/30 and an early initial implementation is available from lev.
