Meeting summary for 20 December 2023:
* *New: no meeting on 27th december or 3 january.*
/Normal meetings to resume on January 10 2024./
* *Updated: OpenVPN 2.6.9 release*
/Given that we're so close to end of year, we'll push this to next
year./
/The --tls-export-cert PR needs a little love first./
/Tentative new release date is January 10./
* *Updated: forums topics*
/There has been a lot of spam. An antispam module had expired. We
fixed that. But there's still the occasional bit of spam./
/We agreed in last meeting to commit to a path to get a new VM and
switch to vBulletin and disconnect from community LDAP logins./
/The new VM is delivered, the license should be delivered this week
too, so then ecrist can get to work./
/RegardingCloudFlare?
<https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/CloudFlare>, currently
not enabled on forums, but we will enable it at some point on the
new VM./
* *New: status of trac/wiki*
/ordex wanted to discuss state of trac/wiki. Do we move to something
else? Do we update existing?/
/mattock has been volunteered to look into alternatives./
/It must be open source. Self-hosted or hosted open-source both fine./
/There is no hard requirement for LDAP capability./
/Should have access controls so only approved members can edit./
* *New: status of community LDAP sign-in solution*
/We use it currently for forums, wiki, gerrit, patchwork. We are
seriously considering getting rid of it./
/The reality is that 99.99% of forums users do not interact with the
other tools./
/And that the small group of contributors to wiki and gerrit does
not justify the need for an LDAP sign-in solution./
/So we're inclined to disconnect from LDAP. For the forums we
already intend to do that now./
/No final decision reached at this time. Considering our options./
* *New: packet header order*
/plaisthos wanted to get consensus/decision on whether we do that as
part of the rekeying improvements./
/Generally in favor of adding a new negotiable packet format, so
long as plaisthos and syzzer are in agreement./
* *New: plan to improve server side testing*

* *Updated: TLS 1.0 PRF problem*

it in yet./
