So the package name would be openvpn-2.3 or openvpn-2.4 for us, which creates redundancy as the actual version is added (openvpn-2.3-2.3.12), but it prevents moving users between release branches.
Alpha/beta releases and perhaps the early release candidates should still also be marked in a separate "unstable" 'distribution'.
