Reopening this - this winsparkle idea to trigger "hey, do you want to upgrade?" sounds interesting. I see this in my user base, they never upgrade, because they are not told to (and I opened a Trac ticket for this 100 years ago, which never got traction).

openvpn-gui does not really do "releases" - the releases are done over there, in the "openvpn" project. So moving the issue over... (@flichtenheld might opt to move to "openvpn-build" instead).

@cron2 Thanks for the info. Neither openvpn-gui, openvpn, nor openvpn-build have releases in the GitHub sense. I'm not saying they have to, I'm just trying to figure out a good way to be informed of updates so I can install them. Whether that's via GitHub notifications or some other means is fine with me.

Having an RSS feed using some existing "standards" like sparkle (winsparkle for Windows) may also help if we want to add an update feature to the GUI. https://github.com/vslavik/winsparkle/wiki/Appcast-Feeds

Use of Winsparkle would be an easy way to add a "check for updates and optionally install" to the GUI: https://winsparkle.org/ and https://github.com/vslavik/winsparkle though it adds dependency on wxWidgets and expat.

OK good. I closed it only because I didn't want to bother the dev team.

Renamed this issue to better reflect what this is about at this point.
