Will 0.23 include Kerberos authentication? Will this finally unite the Yahoo 
and Apache branches?

Hi,

 0.20.203 is the latest stable release which includes a ton of features 
(security - kerberos based authentication) and fixes. Its currently deployed at 
over 50k machines at Yahoo too.
 So, yes, I'd encourage you to use 0.20.203. We, the community, are currently 
working on hadoop-0.23 and hope to get it out soon.

thanks,
Arun
