There is an important issue here. Will future versions of OpenAFS be dependent
on KfW?  

Its fine that they can work together, but will KfW be required? 

What about other implementations of Kerberos including the version provided in Windows? 

I would hope that OpenAFS would not require a specific version of Kerberos.
