samba - Nov 2019 - Fedora developer list is asking about progress for MIT Kerberos 5 compatibility

I've been involved in a thread over on the fedora-devel mailing list
about the experimental MIT Kerberos 5 compatibility for Samba. I'm
staring at https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/MIT_Build , and the list
of incompatibilities is daunting.

Is anyone over here doing the compatibility work and can comment on
progress? Or, perhaps,  is this just fundamentally unworkable? The
experimental version *builds* for Fedora 31, but I've not tested it.

Wrong wiki page ;-)

Try: 
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Running_a_Samba_AD_DC_with_MIT_Kerberos_KDC

That is more up to date.

Yes, there is work being done, but it is slow going from what I have seen.

Maybe we can get a link published to the newer page on the old page?

Thank you for the pointer. I'd not want to judge how difficult the
work is, but I am curious about progress.
