|---|
| 86 | ----------------- |
|---|

|---|

|---|
| 93 | |
|---|
| 94 | New in 2.0.4-BETA |
|---|
| 95 | ----------------- |
|---|
| 96 | * THIS IS A BETA-QUALITY RELEASE THAT IS ONLY INTENDED FOR USE BY |
|---|
| 97 | DEVELOPERS WHOSE APPLICATIONS MAKE USE OF THE CYRUS SASL LIBRARY. |
|---|
| 98 | IT *WILL BREAK* ANY APPLICATION EXPECTING THE SASLv1 API. |
|---|
| 99 | * This release now includes Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X support. |
|---|
| 100 | * Significant new features include |
|---|
| 101 | * DES and 3DES Encryption should now be working for DIGEST-MD5 |

|---|
| 104 | * Many other bugfixes (see ChangeLog) |
|---|
| 105 | |
|---|
| 106 | New in 2.0.3-BETA |
|---|
| 107 | ----------------- |
|---|
| 108 | * THIS IS A BETA-QUALITY RELEASE THAT IS ONLY INTENDED FOR USE BY |
|---|
| 109 | DEVELOPERS WHOSE APPLICATIONS MAKE USE OF THE CYRUS SASL LIBRARY. |
|---|
| 110 | IT *WILL BREAK* ANY APPLICATION EXPECTING THE SASLv1 API. |
|---|
| 111 | * This library should be fairly close to the core features that will be |
|---|
| 112 | released in a final version of Cyrus SASLv2. It very likely has bugs. |
|---|
| 113 | * Major new features included in this release: |
|---|
| 114 | - The glue code now correctly handles client-send-first and server-send-last |
|---|
| 115 | situations based on what the protocol and mechanism each support. |
|---|
| 116 | - The sasldb code has been extracted from the main library and now resides |
|---|
| 117 | in a separate libsasldb.la that is available at build time. |
|---|
| 118 | - SASLdb now supports multiple auxiliary properties, though as distributed |
|---|
| 119 | only userPassword is implemented and used. |
|---|
| 120 | - Much improved configure checking for various items, including |
|---|
| 121 | Berkeley DB, Kerberos, and GSSAPI. |
|---|
| 122 | - Better (more standard) handling of realms in DIGEST-MD5. |
|---|
| 123 | - A new Plugin Programmer's guide. |
|---|
| 124 | - IPv6 support. |
|---|
| 125 | - Error reporting now works in the GSSAPI plugin. |
|---|
| 126 | * See the ChangeLog for a more detailed list of changes. |
|---|
| 127 | |
|---|
| 128 | New in 2.0.2-ALPHA |
|---|
| 129 | ------------------ |
|---|
| 130 | * THIS IS AN ALPHA-QUALITY RELEASE THAT IS ONLY INTENDED FOR DEVELOPERS |
|---|
| 131 | WHOSE APPLICATIONS MAKE USE OF THE CYRUS SASL LIBRARY. |
|---|
| 132 | * This release is intended to show developers that use Cyrus SASL what |
|---|
| 133 | direction we are planning on taking the library so that they can make |
|---|
| 134 | plans to migrate their applications accordingly |
|---|
| 135 | * Major new features included in this release: |
|---|
| 136 | - Ability to compile a static library including all mechanisms. This |
|---|
| 137 | means lower memory usage and faster mechanism loading time, but |
|---|
| 138 | is not for everyone (or even many people). See doc/advanced.html, |
|---|
| 139 | as well as the '--with-staticsasl' configure flag. |
|---|
| 140 | - Man pages should now all be present and are close to being correct. |
|---|
| 141 | - Can now build libsfsasl and the smtptest program (using the --with-sfio |
|---|
| 142 | configure flag) |
|---|
| 143 | - Reverted to the v1 entry points for mechanisms, to allow v1 mechanisms |
|---|
| 144 | to fail loading cleanly. |
|---|
| 145 | - Auxprop and canon_user plugins can now load from DSOs |
|---|
| 146 | - Java code now compiles (but is not well tested, or up to date with the |
|---|
| 147 | current Java API draft) |
|---|
| 148 | - Error handling and use of sasl_errdetail has been fleshed out and |
|---|
| 149 | should now work in most cases. |
|---|
| 150 | * Still Coming: |
|---|
| 151 | - Cleanup of the client-send-first and server-send-last situation |
|---|
| 152 | - Error reporting in GSSAPI plugin |
|---|
| 153 | - Move the sasldb code out of the main library and into plugins and |
|---|
| 154 | utilities only. |
|---|
| 155 | |
|---|
| 156 | New in 2.0.0-ALPHA |
|---|
| 157 | ------------------ |
|---|
| 158 | * THIS IS AN ALPHA-QUALITY RELEASE THAT IS ONLY INTENDED FOR DEVELOPERS |
|---|
| 159 | WHOSE APPLICATIONS MAKE USE OF THE CYRUS SASL LIBRARY. |
|---|
| 160 | * This release is intended to show developers that use Cyrus SASL what |
|---|
| 161 | direction we are planning on taking the library so that they can make |
|---|
| 162 | plans to migrate their applications accordingly |
|---|
| 163 | * This release implements the SASLv2 API. |
|---|
| 164 | Some of the major improvements in the API include: |
|---|
| 165 | - Memory management is now sane (whoever allocates the memory is responsible |
|---|
| 166 | for freeing it) |
|---|
| 167 | - Auxiliary Property plugin support (ability to interface with directory |
|---|
| 168 | services as part of authentication) |
|---|
| 169 | - Username canonification plugin support |
|---|
| 170 | - Improved error reporting (not fully implemented in this release) |
|---|
| 171 | - Database support has been simplified. We now maintain only a single |
|---|
| 172 | store of plaintext passwords that is shared by all supplied plugins |
|---|
| 173 | (using the auxiliary property interface). |
|---|
| 174 | The new API is more fully documented in the header files sasl.h, saslplug.h |
|---|
| 175 | saslutil.h, and prop.h. The man pages, programmers guide, and system |
|---|
| 176 | administrators guide have also been rewritten to deal with the new API. |
|---|
| 177 | * There is still a good amount of work to be done, and as this code is alpha |
|---|
| 178 | quality, it has bugs, known and unknown. Please either use our bugzilla at |
|---|
| 179 | http://bugzilla.andrew.cmu.edu, or email cyrus-bugs@andrew.cmu.edu with |
|---|
| 180 | questions, comments, or bug reports. |
|---|
| 181 | - Most notably, the Java bindings have not been converted to work with |
|---|
| 182 | the new API, and thus will not compile successfully. |
|---|
| 183 | - The current development branch with this source is in our |
|---|
| 184 | cvs repository as the "sasl-v2-rjs3" branch of the "sasl" collection. |
|---|
