Topics

1. Sync up on OpenVPN 2.5 and 2.6
2. release 2.5.2
   • time line (March 17th) still stands?
3. security@ subkey has expired --> a new key has been created and distributed. thanks, David
4. mbedTLS 2.25.0 crash bug / patch
   • how to deal with it?
5. review culture
   • nothing happens for weeks, and then a review that purely focuses on "bah, your whitespace is not right"
   • this is very frustrating for the patch author, and slows down the whole process even further
   • please focus on code quality and functionality first, and if all that is OK, point out the remaining whitespace issues (which can be fixed at commit time in most cases)
   • of course, submitters are encouraged to run uncrustify before git-send-email...
6. Containerized buildmaster and mattock's buildslaves
7. ​Bridged Windows 10 Causes Sporadic Crashes
8. [Suggestion] Old Patches
   • ​Patchwork series 874
     • ​patch 1 is already NAK'ed.
     • ​patch 2 has no discussion. Reject, to close this series out?
   • ​https://patchwork.openvpn.net/patch/636/
     • not ACK'ed, but is a positively-received single change that would increase DoS posture.
     • Appears simple but stalled / overlooked.
9. FIPS patches
   • should be "integrated" by 06f6cf3ff850 (PRF patch)
