Date: Wed, 29 Aug 90 17:20:24 -0400 From: John T Kohl <jtkohl@ATHENA.MIT.EDU> To: krbdev@ATHENA.MIT.EDU 0. all krb5dev activity is recorded in the krb5dev discuss meeting. You are all expected to read it regularly. 0a. /mit/krb5/doc/alpha/ has some notes for alpha test sites which you should read; this includes a whirlwind tour of the source tree layout. 1. discussion of time available to work on Kerberos work: Don 20-30h/wk John Carr 10h/wk Ken 8-10h/wk Ted 1/2 time once employment straightened out Jon ? Barry ? John Kohl 20h/wk 2. discussion of items needing work, and who volunteers/is volunteered to do them: all: clean up any XXX in code (by fixing code, not by deleting comments!) don: kdc v4 compat; kdc vs. replay cache/UDP issues tytso: slave server & propagation bcn: multi-thread warnings/improved pseudo code. jtkohl: multi-homed hosts; forged authenticators raeburn: STDIO-based ccache; thread-safe rcache jfc: user2user api proposal jon: study admin program/server needs; recommend 3. other items: can we eventually create a v4 interface to v5 code, so that clients just re-link? (on the back burner for now...v4 at KDC is current high-priority conversion path) Barry suggests 'unbundling' ss/et/imake/etc so that they can be picked up separately, so other sites only need one copy. discussion of conversion of existing admin_server tools (may or may not be worthwhile); whether anything other than a kdb_init & admin_server are needed. set-up of a test krb5 kdc 4. action items: * all: work on code; should be both ANSI and common-C compilable * jfc/bjaspan: come back with user2user api proposal * jtkohl: find a place to set up a test krb5 kdc
