GSS NEWS -- History of user-visible changes. -*- outline -*-
Copyright (C) 2003 Simon Josefsson See the end for copying conditions. * Changes in 0.0.4 (released 2003-08-10) ** GSS is a GNU project. ** Kerberos 5 crypto fixes. This release accompany Shishi 0.0.1. * Changes in 0.0.3 (released 2003-07-02) ** Includes compatibility functionality from gnulib in gl/. ** Documentation improvements. The file README-alpha contains some hints for binary packagers. Essentially, don't distribute shared libraries, as this package is too immature to bump the shared object version for every modification currently. ** Bugfixes and cleanups. * Changes in 0.0.2 (released 2003-06-28) ** Server mode works (a little). GNU MailUtils can use GSS for its native GSSAPI authentication in server mode, which then interoperate with (at least) the GNU SASL command line client using GSS. ** Memory allocated via xalloc from gnulib. This takes care of out of memory errors, see the new section in the manual named "Out of Memory handling". * Changes in 0.0.1 (released 2003-06-12) ** Error handling. ** Swedish translation. ** Improved manual. ** Bug fixes. * Changes in 0.0.0 (released 2003-06-02) ** Initial release. The source code framework is in place, an outline of the documentation is ready, and there are some simple self tests. The Kerberos 5 mechanism (RFC 1964) supports mutual authentication and the standard DES cipher. The non-standard 3DES cipher is also implemented, but unfortunately there are no specifications for AES. GNU SASL can use this version to connect to GNU Mailutils and Cyrus IMAP servers that use the GSS implementations from MIT Kerberos or Heimdal. Server mode is not supported yet. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice and this notice are preserved. |
