*SUMMARY*
cron2, jamesyonan, mattock and syzzer participated in this meeting
---
Discussed the "Interactive service" patchset:
<https://sourceforge.net/p/openvpn-gui/openvpn/ci/interactive_service/tree/>
Cron2 will take care of the remaining modifications and merge the
patchset into Git "master". After that mattock will create Windows test
installers.
---
Discussed the AEAD patchset:
<https://github.com/syzzer/openvpn/tree/aead-cipher-modes8>
Jamesyonan and syzzer will first do compatibility tests between OpenVPN
2.x/3.x and then move on to patch review.
---
Discussed the "Openvpn with crytpodev on FreeBSD does not work" bug:
<https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/ticket/480>
Changing the init order as in the original patch to #480 would break
config files which have relative paths in them, but which don't use the
"--cd" option. As that kind of configs seem to be very common, the
original patch was ruled out. This problem could also be fixed at the
FreeBSD end, but that might take a long time.
Syzzer will provide a patch that will change the init order from
"openssl init, then daemon(with chdir)" to "daemon(without chdir),
openssl init, chdir()". This should fix the issue in a clean way without
nasty side-effects.
