Tonight (14/05/19-15/05/19) the following updated packages are being released:
app-openvpn - Remove compression from the configs in response to a security issue
app-qos - Pref on IFB. This replaces the IMQ module in the kernel and means we can then revert to an upstream kernel without having to build our own.
app-antivirus - Change permissions on /etc/freshclam.conf. With current permissions, freshclam won't run if you are behind an upstream proxy.
app-network-map - to quieten down logging of bogons, flip-flop and bad hardware messages in the logs.
Possibly coming tonight
app-dynamic-vpn - move the updown scripts to from the global conf file to the individual conns. This allows the Dynamic VPN and Static VPN apps to work at the same time. Also some config tidy-ups. The app is ready and tested. It just needs to be pushed to the repos but this has hit a glitch.
Released on 16/05/2019
dansguardian-av - Force squid to start if dansguardian (content filter) is started
app-content-filter - Force dansguardian to restart if proxy restarts. This works but there is a bug in clearsync, so you either need to restart clearsync or reboot (drastic) to make this fix active.
Cancelled:
app-web-proxy - will not be happening - change has been backed out.
Packages available for testing:
app-ntp - adds new configuration options. I understand some re-coding may be needed to get to the coding standard and UI look and feel, but functionally it should be OK.
Packages available for testing can be installed with:

Yes, for Community. If there are no reported issues from the community they should get pushed to Home/Business next week. Personally I'd possibly hold back QoS a further week as it is a small change to the configs but it activates a bigger underlying change. The other changes are much smaller, almost in the tweak category.
App-dynamic-vpn is a paid only app and it did not make it last night. I would guess it will now wait until next Tuesday.
I thing I've got dansguardian built. I'll test tomorrow and push tomorrow night with app-content-filter, if possible. -

If you received app-openvpn-2.4.7 then you have the updated package which is fine. If you received app-openvpn-2.4.3, you will receive app-openvpn-2.4.7 tonight.
app-openvpn-2.4.3 is still usable for everything except downloading the OpenVPN configuration file where you will find it missing line breaks which can be manually entered. -
