== 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 ~10 devs.

== where? ==

The meeting is held at the office of F-Secure: [https://www.google.fi/maps/place/Tammasaarenkatu+7,+00180+Helsinki/@60.1615776,24.904545,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x46920a4f30181845:0x49f2c671fe3f120b!8m2!3d60.1615749!4d24.9067337?hl=en Tammasaarenkatu 7, Helsinki, Finland]. You will be given a temporary ID card at the front desk.

Probably the closest hotel is [http://www.booking.com/hotel/fi/hoildayinncitywest.html Holiday Inn Ruoholahti]. 

Both hotel and our office are easily reachable by public transport - there is a metro station Ruoholahti [https://www.google.fi/maps/dir/Ruoholahden+metroasema,+Helsinki/Tammasaarenkatu+7,+00180+Helsinki/@60.1626167,24.9102654,17z/data=!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x46920a496884d6eb:0xa732d2873ace2091!2m2!1d24.9138961!2d60.1632683!1m5!1m1!1s0x46920a4f30181845:0x49f2c671fe3f120b!2m2!1d24.9067337!2d60.1615749!3e2?hl=en a few hundred meters away]. From the Helsinki Vantaa Airport you could take a train to Helsinki Central Railway Station (Rautatientori) and from there 2 metro stops to Ruoholahti.

If you have any questions - please contact Lev at +358 40 0453610.

== what? ==

So what is the goal of the Hackathon?

  * Introduce a IV_PROTO=3 and remove -master only but alwyas there IV_xx? (every compression also as V2 version, IV_RGI6, IV_TCPNL (when implemeted before 2.4))

 * 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
   * support for negotiable ciphers and "null-compression"
   * support for control channel encryption ('tls-crypt') and user-specific tls-auth ('tls-cookie')
   * 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.
   * quick feedback discussion on [https://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00181.htmlhttps://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00181.html D-Bus]
   * FIPS mode - is that something we need to consider? Trac ticket #725
 * 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.
