Dear MIT Kerberos & Internet Trust (KIT) Consortium Members,

We are writing today to provide an update on the status of the MIT KIT
Consortium and to announce plans and paths forward for future activities.

Since its founding in 2007, the consortium has enjoyed great success,
establishing Kerberos as one of the Internet's standard security protocols and
enhancing the MIT Kerberos reference implementation with thousands of
improvements. With the ensuing scope expansion and associated rebranding as the
MIT Kerberos and Internet Trust Consortium (KIT), the consortium has likewise
seen success researching and championing new digital identity standards.

As these dual-streams of work have progressed, it has become clear that there is
a need for changing how we organize our work around these two activities to
provide greater focus on both the long-term maintenance of the widely used MIT
Kerberos implementation and the exploration of up-and-coming research activities
in the area of digital identity. To that end, we are pleased to announce the
following updates:

 * Going forward, MIT will operate MIT Kerberos development and maintenance as
   an Institute-funded open source project and will no longer seek external
   funding for these activities.  MIT will continue to publish releases of the
   MIT Kerberos distribution on a yearly basis, with discussion and
   contributions welcome via the kerberos@mit.edu and krbdev@mit.edu mailing
   lists.

 * Research related to Internet Trust protocols and development will occur under
   the auspices of MIT's recently established Institute for Data, Systems, and
   Society (IDSS).  IDSS will continue to seek sponsors looking to partner with
   MIT on developing frameworks and systems that address current challenges in
   Internet privacy and security, working closely with MIT faculty and
   students performing cutting-edge research in these areas.

Correspondingly, the MIT KIT name will be retired.  Kerberos development
activity will occur via the kerberos.org project, and the work of developing new
frameworks and systems that address current challenges in Internet privacy and
security will be coordinated via the soon-to-be-launched MIT Internet Trust
Consortium (http://trust.mit.edu), in IDSS.

It is our hope that these changes will allow MIT's and the world's investment in
Kerberos to continue to flourish in the future, while simultaneously paving the
way for MIT and its industry partners to continue to lead the way in tackling
new challenges in the areas of Internet privacy and security.
