Topics

• Updated: 2.7.x release
  A few more security fixes are coming in 2.7.8, and this is planned for October 1st.

• Updated: 2.6.x release
  Some security fixes recently released in 2.7.7 didn't apply cleanly to 2.6.x.
  Backporting it to 2.6 is ongoing, and a release for that is expected next week.

• Updated: 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.
  This would allow for a client to for example select the best available server based on test results.
