That particular jab was pretty strange.

The very first example in the OpenVPN documentation is of a server config:

  dev tun
  ifconfig 10.8.0.1 10.8.0.2
  secret static.key
That's three lines. The client needs a "remote" entry as well. How much more terse can it get?

There are many applications with complex configuration formats, but OpenVPN is not it. It has both a simple format and good defaults. It should be an example to others!

It seems like you are taking this personally. Why?

Not sure what you're trying to read between the lines, but it's not there intentionally. There was no sarcasm intended.

OpenVPN has a terse and logical configuration language. For all the complaints that open source projects do bad UX, someone put a bit of thought into this one, and it shows.
