I haven't seen TomK in a while, so I'm bringing this to the list: The

openvpn.
I want to enable the --enable-password-save option in our openvpn package.
IMO, our users are smart enough to know the security implications of saving
a password in a plaintext file. Enabling this option is completely safe if
you don't use this feature.
What do you think?
NVM, I met TomK on IRC and he told me to go ahead.
openvpn is a core package so it should go in testing for signoff. You just
committed it to extra.
