Certainly A lot of people find KFW 3.2.2 useful. I think the
interesting question is whether anyone is willing to put money or their
own time behind updating KFW to a more recent version of the core
Kerberos libraries.
I think there's an assumption in my mind and probably the mind of a lot
of people here that without updates to the core libraries that code base
will eventually bit-rot.
