Date: Thu, 9 May 91 17:10:40 -0400 From: tytso@ATHENA.MIT.EDU (Theodore Ts'o) To: krb5-testers@MIT.EDU Reply-To: tytso@athena.mit.edu This drop is a snapshot of our source tree from the beginning of this week. Get it from the same place you got the first alpha, but now it's in a subdir 'alpha5'. Major diffs from alpha4: Introduction of GSS API interface (still very green code!) Introduction of user-to-user authentication (also very green code!) Some krb5 library routines renamed to be more intuitive Some memory leaks found and fixed. Other bug fixes of many varieties ---------------------------- The next release will be the Beta release, and will be the first Kerberos 5 release to be available to the general public via anonymous FTP. We are currently planning to make the release the Beta release of Kerberos 5 available in the beginnning of June. The Beta release will consist of the alpha 5 drop plus various bug fixes. The GSS API code and the user to user code should also become more stable (but will still be a bit more shaky than the rest of the code.)
