SUMMARY

cron2, d12fk, lev, jamesyonan, mattock and segoon participated in this
meeting.

Discussed the "​Mac OS X Keychain management client" (v3) patch:

<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.network.openvpn.devel/9421>

The patch was given an ACK by jamesyonan on the condition that the
changes affecting existing codebase are tested on Android. We will ask
if plaisthos could help with the testing.

---

Discussed the "​Make OpenVPN set routes on Windows Vista and later" patch:

<http://sourceforge.net/p/openvpn-gui/openvpn/ci/8195efc0d8841b52217643a43d486cda2e171fea>

Jamesyonan agreed the general approach used in interactive.c is the best
one. Although some potential improvements were identified, the patch was
given an ACK by cron2 in order to get it into the wild in form of Git
"master" Windows snapshots. Incremental improvements will be made based
on user feedback and practical tests.

---

Discussed the "Account for peer-id in frame size calculation" patch:

<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.network.openvpn.devel/9418>

Decided to delay the link-mtu calculation until after options have
received. This fixes the issue at hand and  should not bring up new
surprises. More discussion is needed to figure out the best long-term
plan regarding protocol negotiations in general.

Full chatlog is attached.
