I wasn't trying to be funny. Complaining about "it's not happening fast
enough" with lots of expclamation marks about something you didn't pay
anything for isn't really motivating volunteers to spend their free time
on your issues.

Last thing I saw in the ticket was about Windows RT on a tablet.
OTOH, for regular Win 8, this has been fairly tricky to reproduce - I use
OpenVPN in a commercial environment with users on Win 8 and 8.1 (64bit),
and have received no single complaint from any of them. So it's not like
"it does not work on Win 8, period" but "something is different here".
Plus, you nicely overlooked this bit here:

... so, you might want to give this a try.
