MIT Kerberos for Windows 3.1 has been delayed

MIT Kerberos for Windows 3.1 has been delayed. The original anticipated delivery date was late January. Unfortunately things have taken a bit longer than expected. On the plus side the Network Identity Manager is feature complete. The next edition will include a wide variety of new tools for viewing the acquired credentials. In addition, all of the known bugs have been fixed. KFW 3.1 will be a significant release.
