OpenVPN Support Forum

Hi everyone,

In recent OpenVPN community meetings the idea of rethinking the forum board layout has been brought up. There are certain topics like open source client usage/configuration that do not fit into any existing forum board.

Below is a new layout proposal created by pippin that is meant as a starting point for discussion. The "Enterprise/business" part of the proposal has already been implemented and is omitted here.

Thoughts about this new layout proposal?

I would personally prefer to have a single "Server" board. The rationale: server configuration is mostly the same regardless of the operating system. If we split it to several boards there's a risk of having less people answer generic server questions. On the client-side differences between operating systems are bigger (GUI-vise at least), so maybe a split there makes more sense.

I'm not opposed to reorganizing things.
