With the release earlier this week of the new stable OpenAFS for Windows
release, 1.3.81:

  http://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-announce/2005/000100.html

there is also an updated status report:

http://web.mit.edu/jaltman/Public/OpenAFS/Reports/Apr-2005-Status-Report.pdf

The 1.3.81 release is the result of several more weeks of testing using
the MIT IS&T stress test.  The end result is a client which after more
than a week of testing could not be crashed or otherwise brought to a
non-functioning state.

In addition, as announced on the openafs-win32-devel list the method
used for translating timestamps stored in AFS (UNIX time) to Windows
(FILETIME) has been replaced.  Under the new method, a file copied from
NTFS to AFS in January will maintain matching timestamps after the DST
transition.  See the mailing list archive for a more complete discussion:

https://lists.openafs.org/pipermail/openafs-win32-devel/2005-April/000308.html

For the complete list of changes since 1.3.80 see:
  http://www.openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.3.81/winnt/afs-changes-since-1.2.txt

and of course be sure to read the install notes:

As always I encourage all organizations and individuals who wish to
support the development of OpenAFS for Windows to contact me.  Financial
contributions as well as in kind assistance are seriously appreciated.
Tax deductible donations may be made via the OpenAFS account operated by
Usenix (a 501c3 not for profit corporation.)
