Please send comments to the krbdev list in the next few weeks.  The

Major changes in 1.6.3 include

    * fix CVE-2007-3999, CVE-2007-4743 svc_auth_gss.c buffer overflow
    * fix CVE-2007-4000 modify_policy vulnerability 

The above are two kadmind vulnerabilities described in

RPC library.

    * Add PKINIT support 

At this point, PKINIT support should be considered to be ALPHA

support.
