    12 * **Status of current bugs?**\\''**Must solve:** crashbug with TCP ([[https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/issues/190]]) is something plaisthos will take a look at.\\**Not critical: **keepalive not working in DCO p2p mode (#1476) [fixed in 7c66a6dab54d8]\\**Not critical as long as keep-alive is used: **p2p TLS renegotiations getting all confused if client reconnects after server failed renegotiation, but *before* server-connect-timeout expires.\\**Not critical: **UDP gremlin uncovers "sometimes p2mp server on linux-dco is not notified / is ignoring if client expires" (8 clients out of about 5000 connects), keeps sending TLS renegotion packets.\\**Must solve: **Seems DCO is not sending a signal to user space when a tcp client disconnects or gets connection reset. Will check if ordex has availability to fix.''
     12* **Status of current bugs?**\\''The crashbug with TCP seems to be solved.\\There are notification issues regarding status of client connected or not between 2.6 and kernel module.\\**Must solve before jan 15th: **Seems DCO is not sending a signal to user space when a tcp client disconnects or gets connection reset.
