I'm more confused than before.  So is what we do still free?  Do we
need to apply somewhere?



It is one time 1000 minutes free tier.
Once it is used the free game is over.

In theory we can contact and ask for permanent OSS free limit, but Travis
did not reply to anybody




Travis did claim "abuse" as their reasoning, which sounds feasible.

On the up-side, builds do seem to be faster :-)








Do we do MacOS builds?  If yes, we might consider removing them (we
do have a MacOS buildslave)...

Actually, not many choices, either to drop Travis or to pay for it.

Yeah, sorry.  Seems I got distracted and forgot all about the
discussed
"solution space", and just remembered the itch.

I'm sure the thread is still sitting in my mailbox... will go
looking for
it today.


For those who have lost the original threads:

That was in Nov-Dec 2017. Actually, I was also thinking of reviving 
this only the other day when intimating users about some updates 
came up.. Somehow such itches re-surface at the end of the year :)


sorry to chip on so late, but at some point we did have a way to push 
env vars to the client (back in v2.2 at least):


inside a client-connect script you can/could do

echo "push \"setenv-safe MSG1 'hello'\"" > $1
echo "push \"setenv-safe MSG2 'download version 2.5 please'\"" >> $1

and then on the client-side you'd simply have to process them (as 
OPENVPN_MSG1 and OPENVPN_MSG2) - couldn't we reuse that to send messages 
to a connected client?


Sending messages to an unauthenticated client - other than "wrong 
password , go away" - seems dangerous to me.
