 I think we should have this seperate new port because:
 
 1. The OpenVPN 1.x config options are different. We should install the
 config files in new directory to avoid surprises.
 
 2. There are people who do not want to upgrade because 1.x works well
 for them. Same reason why we have www/apache2.
 
 3. We should test early before 2.0 release. We are helping the OpenVPN
 developers this way. Think about what we did when firefox was in
 version 0.8
 
 If you consider my reasons valid, I am willing to keep this port to
 the latest version available.
