*SUMMARY*

cron2, jamesyonan, mattock and syzzer participated in this meeting

---

Discussed the "Interactive service" patchset:

<https://sourceforge.net/p/openvpn-gui/openvpn/ci/interactive_service/tree/>

Cron2 will take care of the remaining modifications and merge the patchset into Git "master". After that mattock will create Windows test installers.

---

Discussed the AEAD patchset:

<https://github.com/syzzer/openvpn/tree/aead-cipher-modes8>

Jamesyonan and syzzer will first do compatibility tests between OpenVPN 2.x/3.x and then move on to patch review.

---

Discussed the "Openvpn with crytpodev on FreeBSD does not work" bug:

<https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/ticket/480>

Changing the init order as in the original patch to #480 would break config files which have relative paths in them, but which don't use the "--cd" option. As that kind of configs seem to be very common, the original patch was ruled out. This problem could also be fixed at the FreeBSD end, but that might take a long time.

Syzzer will provide a patch that will change the init order from "openssl init, then daemon(with chdir)" to "daemon(without chdir), openssl init, chdir()". This should fix the issue in a clean way without nasty side-effects.
