	They are archived in the archive of the kerberos@mit.edu
mailing list.  However, it's important to realize that no official
patches have been announced.  Several Kerberos developers have posted
the initial solutions to bugs that they committed to our source tree;
these are moderately close to official patches, although they have not
gone through a formal release or certification process and may change
significantly by the time of the next release.  

	Other pathces have been contribued by users and developers
with other organizations.  Some of these patches have been applied
verbatim or as conceptial suggestions for how to fix a problem.  MIT
has not made any statement about the quality or correctness of any of
these patches, or of patches submitted by Kerberos developers.

	In other words, read and understand any patch you apply to
your sources fully; the responsibility for its correct operation lies
with you.  That being said, check out
http://www.mit.edu:8008/menelaus.mit.edu/kerberos/ for an archive of
the mailing list.
