SUMMARY

cron2, dazo, mattock and Pippin participated in this meeting.

---

Lev now has access to the Windows 10 ARM64 laptop. Mattock will have to
do one more check to ensure that the VPN connection will remain alive at
all times.

---

Noted that HTTP to forums is broken. This may have something to do with
the forum upgrade by ecrist:

---

Reviewed and updated OpenVPN 2.5 status:

<https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/StatusOfOpenvpn25>

No updates on the OpenVPN 2.5 MSI installer (since the hackathon). As
that starts to be the last remaining "must have" for the release we need
to start poking rozmansi now.

---

Discussed tomorrow's mini-hackathon. Cron2 will be able to join in the
afternoon. Mattock will take a stab at configuring the IRC bouncer
(finally).

(21:00:50) mattock: hi
(21:02:51) dazo: Hey!
(21:04:58) mattock: anyone else?
(21:07:19) dazo: hmm
(21:08:01) cron2: ho
(21:09:31) mattock: hi!
(21:09:49) cron2: who broke http to forums.openvpn.net?

(21:09:56) vpnHelper: Title: [Openvpn-devel] Summary of the community meeting 
(27th November 2019) (at www.mail-archive.com)
(21:09:59) mattock: lollis
(21:10:02) mattock: sorry, wrong link
(21:10:08) mattock: https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/Topics-2019-12-05
(21:10:53) mattock: cron2: I did not know it even worked
(21:11:05) cron2: I have monitoring on it, so it worked until a few days ago
(21:11:30) cron2: if it has a v6 address, all services need to work.  Otherwise 
user experience sucks if a poor user happens to have a v6-enabled client
(21:12:27) mattock: I have not touched forums in a long while
(21:12:50) cron2: I think ecrist did updates a few days ago, including a 
freebsd update... this might have caused firewall changes
(21:12:59) mattock: yeah, sounds likely
(21:13:21) Pippin_: Hi, see:

(21:13:33) vpnHelper: Title: Server Upgrades December 3, 2019 - OpenVPN Support 
Forum (at forums.openvpn.net)
(21:13:48) cron2: takes me a while to get there... v6 is not working :)
(21:15:03) cron2: anyway, posted there, let's see :)
(21:16:28) mattock: so, what else shall we discuss today?
(21:16:46) mattock: arm64 "seems stable" and lev has access
(21:17:03) mattock: need to check one more thing to make sure it stays connected
(21:17:18) mattock: IRC bouncer is probably the next on my list
(21:17:40) mattock: I fixed an email delivery issue to gmail from trac, related 
to urlwatch
(21:17:54) mattock: internal PR is pending
(21:21:37) cron2: nice
(21:21:46) mattock: anything anyone else wants to bring up?
(21:21:50) mattock: tomorrow's mini-hackaton?
(21:22:02) cron2: I have no particulars, except "moar ACKs and speedier 
discussions needed"
(21:22:17) cron2: my TODO list has argv and ipv6-only
(21:22:31) dazo: Should we have a quick look at the status page?  
https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/StatusOfOpenvpn25
(21:22:32) vpnHelper: Title: StatusOfOpenvpn25 – OpenVPN Community (at 
community.openvpn.net)
(21:22:37) mattock: yes we probably should
(21:22:40) cron2: but I've been down with flu (or a bad cold) the last week so 
I didn't get much done :(
(21:23:17) dazo: I know ordex has been discussing ipv6only testing with krzee 
internally ... krzee will help out testing and provide test env
(21:23:42) cron2: nie
(21:23:44) cron2: c
(21:25:51) dazo: The "​auth-gen-token: Inform client why auth-token was 
rejected" is replaced with plaisthos patches which should already be merged 
(the auth-gen-token patches we fiddled with for some time)
(21:26:18) dazo: struct argv overhaul is still in review .... can move the 
responsibility for that one over to me
(21:26:42) dazo: (well, plaisthos volunteered to review it, but I'm following 
up the development of these patches now)
(21:27:30) cron2: dazo: well, since you did the last round of fixes, someone 
else can now do the review&ack&merge
(21:27:37) dazo: yeah
(21:27:41) cron2: has been sitting around too long, starts annoying me :)
(21:28:04) cron2: dazo: was the 2fa patchset fully ACKed?
(21:28:33) dazo: Need to double check the status of that 
(21:28:38) cron2: patchwork says "no ACK received on v2 of the patch set"
(21:29:14) cron2: on v1, only one ACK on 3/5 ("implement support for signalling 
IV_SSO")
(21:30:43) dazo: I dunno if there's been an updated set of patches sent to the 
ML ... I proposed to plaisthos to push out his stuff for review in a git 
branch, and we'll take it quickly that way ... so the ML patches will just be a 
formality
(21:31:29) cron2: well, what we have on the ML was sent Nov 09, and has no 
ACKs... so if the patch set is all good now, please re-send and ACK, so I know 
:-)
(21:31:41) cron2: 
https://patchwork.openvpn.net/project/openvpn2/list/?series=581
(21:31:43) vpnHelper: Title: OpenVPN 2 - Patchwork (at patchwork.openvpn.net)
(21:34:00) dazo: ahh, so the subject line I was watching changed ... that's why 
it missed it
(21:34:12) dazo: subject line for the patch set
(21:34:23) cron2: yeah, it lost its "0 introduction" mail
(21:34:30) dazo: yeah
(21:34:44) dazo: alright, I'll spend some time looking at those tomorrow
(21:34:47) cron2: cool
(21:35:16) cron2: I will have to go to a customer tomorrow morning (a job I 
started in March now needs finishing for real...)
(21:35:21) cron2: but I'll be around afternoon
(21:35:33) dazo: sounds good
(21:36:48) mattock: anything else?
(21:37:40) cron2: days are too short, and flu sucks
(21:37:57) dazo: got 2 kids with cold and fever here :/
(21:38:03) cron2: ewww
(21:38:08) ***cron2 sends over warm milk with honey
(21:38:17) dazo: thx! :)
(21:38:27) dazo: who will update the status page, btw?
(21:38:47) ***cron2 looks
(21:38:49) mattock: not me - I will focus on writing my elaborate meeting 
summaries :D
(21:39:15) dazo: community manager chilling out :-P
(21:39:23) dazo: I can give it a stab
(21:39:27) cron2: so, how's the MSI installers coming along? :)
(21:39:40) mattock: cron2: asking me?
(21:39:58) ***cron2 looks for anyone else to ask who works on installers :))
(21:40:12) mattock: I don't see rozmansi here :)
(21:40:19) mattock: I have not heard of any updates
(21:40:48) mattock: I'll keep my fingers of MSI as far as possible, until time 
to actually build them is here
(21:40:50) cron2: what was our release plan?  April 1?
(21:40:57) mattock: around that time I believe
(21:40:58) dazo: something like that
(21:43:10) cron2: minor update done
(21:43:47) mattock: thanks!
(21:43:54) dazo: I think we aimed at having all coding done by mid/end of 
January? So the beta releases can start rolling out ... or did I confuse it?
(21:44:39) cron2: not sure we agreed on a schedule for "how many betas in which 
time scale", but yes, coding done end of January sounds like a tentative goal 
to miss :)
(21:45:01) mattock: :)
(21:45:34) dazo: hehe
(21:46:56) mattock: so the MSI installers are starting to be last "must have" 
that is not yet being reviewed
(21:47:25) mattock: and I believe we decided that it would be ok to run the 
tap-windows6 NSI installer from within the OpenVPN 2.5 MSI 
(21:47:51) mattock: because support for driver installation in WiX toolset was 
retarded
(21:48:01) mattock: or was it upgrading the driver, can't recall exactly
(21:48:12) mattock: we need to start poking @rozmansi :D
(21:48:16) cron2: yes :)
(21:50:30) mattock: are we good, or is there something else to bring up?
(21:50:36) cron2: I'm fine
(21:50:52) mattock: I will take a stab at the IRC bouncer thing
(21:51:02) mattock: that shall be my personal mini-hackathon
(21:51:03) mattock: tomorrow
(21:51:26) cron2: :)
(21:51:47) dazo: cool! looking fwd to that mattock1! :)
(21:52:18) mattock: yep!
(21:52:23) mattock: so, we'll meet again tomorrow!
(21:52:51) cron2: when shall we three meet again...
(21:52:57) cron2: ... in thunder, lightning, or in rain...
(21:53:17) mattock: I'm sure that is a quote from a song
