If it is not a new feature, it is at least a feature extension - not a bug, security or stability fix which is what we should focus on now in the 2.5_rc phase. > Also, we do want 2.6.0 to happen "soonish" this time, like "in one > year, not in four years". Let's see... Yeah, lets get 2.6 out sooner - with lesser new features on the plate, and rather save some goodies for post 2.6 releases - to help the overall development/release cycles go faster. -- kind regards, David Sommerseth OpenVPN Inc
