Chris, I recently got Nordvpn running on my 4.0.1 and I used their .deb package 
to install their app.

The one thing I like about their app is that when it fires up it scans the 
hundreds of servers they have to identify the server that is best to connect 
to. The process that Qubes-vpn-support uses relies on the user manually 
deciding which of the hundreds plus servers to use right, and then creating a 
ln to that ovpn file?

Do you think there could be a way to streamline or automate which ovpn file to 
use?

Thanks!
