OpenVPN Hackathon 2015

who

This year's hackathon is organized by Lev Stipakov (lev).

We will stick to the format of the previous years, which means attendance is in pinciple limited to "active developers that are also regularily contributing to #openvpn-devel or the mailing list". We should have enough space in the meeting room for ~??? devs.

what?

So what is the goal of the Hackathon?

  • meet in person, talk about things
    • contributors agreement (CLA) for OpenVPN 3
    • future development of 2.x and 3.x
  • hack on the 2.4 codebase - there's a number of "large" things we could try to tackle
    • new data packet format proposed for AEAD and "null-compression"
    • how to handle servers with v4+v6 addresses and roaming clients (3G/wifi) that roam from between various brokenness variants, like "from v6+NAT64 3G to native v6 Wifi" or "to v4-only Wifi", etc.
  • Go through the list of pending patches and ACK/NACK them or assign person to review them
  • work on open trac issues
    • lots of things to review and bugs to fix

We're all open for additions here - I think the meetings in Brussels (2011+2012), Munich (2013+2014) and Delft (2015) have shown that "just being able to sit together and hack" is a useful excercise.
