= OpenVPN Beta 2.2 release blockers = == Remaining Trac tickets == OpenVPN 2.2 beta is technically ready for release except for a few trivial work in progress issues: * https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/ticket/18 * https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/ticket/20 == Lack of Windows client binaries and signed TUN/TAP drivers == All beta 2.2 packages expect ''Windows binaries'' can be built automatically by Buildbot. Cross-compiling Windows binaries on *NIX ''with'' the TUN/TAP drivers is not possible. Therefore a Windows computer has to be used. Unfortunately nobody (we know of) in the community has a Windows setup that could be used to build Windows client binaries and/or signed TUN/TAP drivers for 2.2 beta. Who will take care of creating the Windows beta 2.2 packages/installers? == Hosting of OpenVPN 2.2 beta releases == Where shall we host the OpenVPN 2.2 beta releases? By far the easiest and least error-prone setup would be the following: * host beta releases on ''build.openvpn.net'': allows buildslaves to push new builds to the public without manual intervention * provide direct a link to the latest release from ''openvpn.net'' == Announcing the 2.2 beta release == We also need to announce beta 2.2 release officially. Any community/company member can send email to openvpn-devel, openvpn-user and post to ovpnforum.com (soon forums.openvpn.net). Somebody from the company would need to announce the release on Twitter and our web pages. Who will take care of these?
