Contents
Timeline
This is only an approximate timeline.
- 2009-09-14 -- "halfway point" feature and integration test
- 2010-01-04 -- make release branch
- 2010-03-01 -- final release
Code quality
- Move toward test-driven development
- Increase conformance to coding style
- "The great reindent"?
- Selective refactoring
Modularity
- Crypto modularity
- Move toward improved KDB interface
Performance
- Investigate and remedy repeatedly-reported performance bottlenecks.
- Enhancements to improve concurrency
End-user experience
- Reduce DNS dependence
- Love's ccache auxiliary data proposal allows client library to track whether a KDC supports service principal referrals.
Administrator experience
- More versatile crypto configuration, to simplify migration away from DES
Protocol evolution
- FAST enhancements
- Anonymous PKINIT
