Welcome to the January issue of the OpenAFS newsletter. This newsletter summarizes what is happening in the OpenAFS community.
As always, volunteers, patches, bug reports, or any other type of help is greatly appreciated.
Feedback on this newsletter is welcome. The goal is to summarize the various development efforts and news of OpenAFS for the community. Please let Jason Edgecombe <jason@rampaginggeek.com> know what you would like to see out of this newsletter. Any news about AFS-related projects is welcome and may be submitted to Jason for inclusion in the next newsletter.
The current and past issues of this newsletter are available at http://www.openafs.org/newsletter/
The 1.6.0 release candidate 1 is available for download from http://www.openafs.org/release/openafs-1.6.0pre1.html. The 1.6.x series will be the new stable release series for OpenAFS. 1.6.0 includes all of the changes from the 1.5.x series. The differences between the 1.4.x and 1.6.x series are too numerous to mention.
Release 1.4.14 is available from http://www.openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.4.14/. Changes include numberous fixes and support the Linux kernel versions up to 2.6.37.
Discussion on these proposals is welcome and should be done on the AFS3-standardization list at http://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/afs3-standardization

Status: Initial Draft
Last Draft Update: Jan 9, 2010
A working implementation of rxgk was demonstrated at the European AFS & Kerberos Workshop in Pilsen. Whilst there is still work to be done, both on completing the implementation, and on getting the code into the OpenAFS tree, this is an important milestone. Slides from the Pilsen talk are available on their web site, the current rxgk code is, as always, available on github.

Matt Benjamin <matt@linuxbox.com>
An updated XCB implementation (features added to better support byte-range locking, e.g., unicast XCB message types and corrected callback per-message results) is available in provisional form from the openafs-rxgk repository. A version with important bugfixes should be available in the next 1-2 weeks.

Andrew Deason <adeason@sinenomine.net>
The PIC-related problems with the libuafs perl bindings on some platforms have been fixed, and will be submitted to gerrit sometime soon. There will certainly be other issues and such to discuss when that happens, but this is seeing progress again.
