Those will be uploaded as they become available. This release's scope is limited to relatively few client side fixes and enhancements: * Support for recent Linux kernels up to 3.19 Note that kernels 3.17 to 3.17.2 require an additional configure switch when building the kernel module in order to work correctly. The same could apply to distribution kernels with backports of certain changes from 3.17 but not the corresponding fix from 3.17.3 / 3.18. Please consult the release notes and the README for details. * Support for OS X 10.10 "Yosemite" (there's no installer though) * Build support for FreeBSD >= 11.0 and OpenBSD 5.4 * A fix allowing aklog to succeed creating native K5 tokens even when mapping the K5 principal to a K4 one fails * Selected fixes for potential data corruption or client panics under certain conditions For the full list of user visible changes foreseen for 1.6.11, please see http://dl.openafs.org/dl/candidate/1.6.11pre2/RELNOTES-1.6.11pre2 Please assist us by deploying this prerelease and providing positive or negative feedback.
