Meeting summary for 24 January 2024:
* *Closed: License amendment for OpenVPN2 to solve openssl/mbedtls
licensing issues*
/All work on this is now completed./
* *New: security mailing list procedure can stand improvement*
/To be discussed in more detail later./
* *Updated: tasks related to build processes (Mattock)*
o Buildbot can now skip builds that don't touch irrelevant files
(https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-buildbot/pull/31
<https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn-buildbot/pull/31>)
+ Which file and/or directory changes should trigger the
buildbot builds?
+ Do we want the skipped builds to show up on the build state
page? Or to be (almost) completely invisible to buildbot?
+ We do not have answers right now to these questions but the
fact that we can now skip irrelevant things is great.
o Extending the above: Have different Builders and build steps for
different types of files
+ We can have more than one Scheduler per project (e.g. openvpn)
+ Each Scheduler can have a different Change Filters for
builds that are relevant for that type of build
+ Each Scheduler links to a set of Builders
+ Each Builder runs different commands on the Worker (e.g.
"autoreconf -vi && ./configure ..." or "do-something-else")
+ Example Schedulers:
# /openvpn-default/Scheduler (=what we have now) would:
* Trigger normal builds on all builders
* No build would be triggered on documentation changes
# /openvpn-rst/Scheduler would:
* Trigger RST sanity check on one builder when .rst
file changes
* *Updated: OpenVPN 2.6.9 release*
/There is a small security issue reported in OpenVPN for Windows
installer./
/Once this is resolved we can make the 2.6.9 release./
/lev, selva, and d12fk, are looking into this at the moment./
/dazo will work with lev to arrange a CVE report./
* *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./
/ecrist looked into setting up a new forum. Discovered that
migrating data is not possible./
/Suggested approach is to run both old and new side-by-side and let
people finish discussions on old forums while new is up. Then after
some time make the old forum read-only.
/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.
As always you're welcome to join at #openvpn-meeting on Libera IRC
network every Wednesday at 13:00 Central European Time.
Kind regards,
Johan Draaisma
