Samba Projects Directory
========================
>>>>> NOTE: THIS FILE IS NOW VERY OUT OF DATE <<<<<
This is a list of who's working on what in Samba. It's not guaranteed
to be uptodate or accurate but I hope it will help us getting
coordinated.
If you are working on something to do with Samba and you aren't here
then please let me know! Also, if you are listed below and you have
any corrections or updates then please let me know.
Email contact:
samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au

Documentation and FAQ
Docs and FAQ files for the Samba suite of software.
Contact samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au with the diffs. These are urgently
required.
The FAQ is being added to on an ad hoc basis, see the web pages for info.
Mark Preston was working on a set of formatted docs for Samba. Is this
still happening? Contact mpreston@sghms.ac.uk

Netbeui support
This aimed to produce patches so that Samba can be used with clients
that do not have TCP/IP. It will try to remain as portable as possible.
Contact Brian.Onn@Canada.Sun.COM (Brian Onn) Unfortunately it died, and
although a lot of people have expressed interest nobody has come forward
to do it. The Novell port (see Samba web pages) includes NetBEUI
functionality in a proprietrary library which should still be helpful as
we have the interfaces. Alan Cox (a.cox@li.org) has the information
required to write the state machine if someone is going to do the work.

Smbfs
A mountable smb filesystem for Linux using the userfs userspace filesystem
Contact lendecke@namu01.gwdg.de (Volker Lendecke)
This works really well, and is measurably more efficient than commercial
client software. It is now part of the Linux kernel. Long filename support
is in use.

In the design phase.
