1.8.x series
============

Hoping for more test reports for 1.8.4pre1. So far one
successful report received.
Linux 5.3-rc8 expected this weekend
Planning to release OpenAFS 1.8.4pre2 early next week.
NEWS updates needed for pre2


master/1.9.x
============

Some of Yadav's aklog fixes (for akimpersonate) have been merged, the
remaining are nearly ready.

Cheyenne submitted changes for more IPv6 preparation
(log messages formatting cleanup).


pam issues on RHEL8
===================

Yadav reports he has been testing on RHEL8 and discovered
pam_krb5 is not available.

Stephan notes pam_afs_session has been orphaned.

Ben says local sites could have a local build of pam_krb5.so on RHEL8
and use that instead of pam_sss.so; openafs wouldn't be involved
directly.

Discussion to be moved to openafs-info.

Also Yadav reported trouble pushing to gerrit last Friday.
Ben to check the logs.
