The Samba-Team are committed to an agressive program to deliver quality
controlled software to a well defined roadmap.
-The current Samba release 1.9.17 is called the "Browse Fix Release"
+The current Samba release 1.9.18 is called the "Oplock Release"
The following development objectives are in place:
+----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Please Note: Development of the 1.9.19 and 1.9.20 releases is presently
+ well ahead of schedule. This means that the release program
+ may very well change radically from what is outlined below.
+
+ If present developments continue then 1.9.19 will feature
+ improved authentication and security capabilities as well as
+ the long promised GUI (Web) based management tools.
+
+ This being the case, then version 2.0 may become the long
+ awaited Windows NT Domain Controller Release and version 2.1
+ will become the Directory Services update.
+
+ Should 1.9.19 roll out ahead of schedule then there will
+ likely be a delay of up to 6 months before the NT Domain
+ Controller release will be ready for prime-time business use.
