easy-rsa upgrade - documentation
We want to include the latest easy-rsa 3 release in the soon coming OpenVPN 2.5 release, where it is bundled in the Windows installer.
From a quick glance, it seems there is missing some documentation how to perform upgrade from prior easy-rsa 2 releases. A quick howto which we can include in the bundle and/or point at somewhere would be appreciated.
The OpenVPN 2.5_rc1 release is currently scheduled to Monday September 21, 2020. We can probably do that release without docs if we have a guarantee the docs will arrive in time for the final 2.5.0 release.
I also need to push an update for v3.0.9 that either downgrades OpenSSL or fixes the bug 1.1.1g is causing. I’ll try to get to that tonight.

I’ve re-released the v3.0.8 packages for Windows and this appears to be working now with the older OpenSSL library and binaries.

@dsommers the link above was something i put together while working on the upgrade.
It could do with improvement, which is why it is on the wiki, so that i can edit it at will.

Alright, would you be willing to whip together something we can ship in the 2.5 release, based on that wiki page?
Sorry, I would not be willing to whip together something -- I will edit the wiki as needed.
Personally, I do not believe EasyRSA-3 is entirely ready for mass deployment.
Edit: EasyRSA-3 renew is still incomplete.
Otherwise .."She rocks" mostly .. ;-)
I can put something together in the official docs based on what is in the wiki. Give me a day or two.
