0018371: Remove references to OpenVPN in the Let's Encrypt app in the Marketplace
In the marketplace widget for Let's Encrypt it says:
"Let's Encrypt is an open certificate authority that provides free SSL certificates. The app intelligently integrates the certificate lifecyle and management into Webconfig to be used by other services - Webconfig, website hosting, Openfire, OpenVPN etc."

This has been reported on the forum: https://www.clearos.com/clearfoundation/social/community/howto-letsencrypt-free-certficates-for-clearos-7-3#reply-201181 [^]

I do not believe the certificates integrate with OpenVPN at all and may give a big security risk if they did (OpenVPN only really checks if the certificate is signed by the same CA that the OpenVPN server uses which would enable anyone with a Let's Encrypt certificate to pass the certificate part of the OpenVPN validation).

..... and if fixing it, change the typo "lifecyle" to "lifecycle".
