CALL FOR DISCUSSION: comp.protocols.kerberos

[Dan Kolkowitz]

Here I propose the creation of the newsgroup:

      comp.protocols.kerberos

This is to promote discussion and exchange of ideas on the kerberos 
authentication system from Project Athena at M.I.T.  The first public release 
became available today through anonymous ftp from there.  Since the 
authentication is protocol based and not specfically tied to Unix the 
kerberos people and I thought comp.protocols.kerberos to be the most 
appropriate place for the kerberos group.  

The date this proposal is posted: Jan. 25, 1989

There will be a discussion period of two weeks (until Feb. 8, 1989) to
hear people's suggestions, wishes, ideas, and flames. Please note the
Follow-up: field and send your Follow-ups to news.groups. 

Following Feb. 8, 1989, there will be a 30-day Yes/No voting period.
I'll post a Call For Vote message as a reminder. Please direct all
Yes/No answers to me (kolk at jessica.stanford.edu).

Thanks.
