You can help
Even if you are no programmer you can help by translating the OpenVPN client into your native language. Crowdin provides a free service for non commercial open source projects (Fixing/completing existing translations is very welcome as well)
FAQ
You can find the FAQ here (same as in app): http://ics-openvpn.blinkt.de/FAQ.html
Note to administrators
You make your life and that of your users easier if you embed the certificates into the .ovpn file. You or the users can mail the .ovpn as a attachment to the phone and directly import and use it. Also downloading and importing the file works. The MIME Type should be application/x-openvpn-profile.
Inline files are supported since OpenVPN 2.1rc1 and documented in the OpenVPN 2.3 man page (under INLINE FILE SUPPORT)
(Using inline certifaces can also make your life on non Android platforms easier since you have only one file.)
For example ca mycafile.pem
becomes
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- MIIHPTCCBSWgAwIBAgIBADANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQQFADB5MRAwDgYDVQQKEwdSb290 [...] -----END CERTIFICATE-----
