+
+<p>Check out the new look, updated <a href="http://samba.org">Samba.org</a> web site - complete with new logo ! We really like it as it meant we had an excuse to get new Samba Team t-shirts, and stickers for our laptops. Thanks to <a href="http://www.sernet.de/en/">SerNet</a> for taking care of our new 21st Century look.</p>
+
+<p>We recently held SambaXP - our annual get-together in Göttingen, Germany, as usual hosted very capably by SerNet.</p>
+
+<p>Many presentations were listened to, meetings were had, and fine German beer was drunk. Our friends the Microsoft SMB/SMB2 engineers attended again this year, and Tom Talpey from Microsoft announced a new project to design UNIX extensions for the SMB2 protocol. It will be hosted by Team member Chris Hertel's company, ubiqx Consulting, at <a href="http://unixsmb2.org">http://unixsmb2.org</a>.</p>
+
+<p>The slides from all the presentations will be available at <a href="http://sambaxp.org">http://sambaxp.org</a> shortly. If you didn't go, we missed you - and you should certainly make an effort to be there next year !</p>
+
+<p>We are still making great strides on Samba4, and creator of Samba Dr. Andrew Tridgell from IBM (just to be formal for once. Everyone still just calls him "tridge" :-) demonstrated two-way replication between a Microsoft Active Directory domain, and a Samba4 Domain. There is still much work to be done on the AD domain controller code, but we're starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel in getting to a "stable" 4.0 release. Maybe by SambaXP next year we'll have an exciting new announcement to make.</p>
+
+<p>In a Team meeting and after consultations with OEM's and Linux distributions
+we decided to move to a nine month period between major Samba releases instead
+of our previous six month release cycle. The strain of keeping to the six
+monthly cycle was too great on the release process, and nine months should give
+us a better balance between having time for feature development and time for
+testing of the Samba production release code.</p>
+
+<p>Plans for the merging of the existing file server (smbd) and authentication
+daemon code (winbindd) with the Active Directory code (samba) were made,
+and tridge demonstrated Samba4 printing using the source3 print code for
+the first time.</p>
+
+<p>Günther Deschner from Red Hat won the "code janitor of the year"
+award yet again, for his clean up of the old hand-marshalled RPC printing
+code, and was only just beaten to the post as the top code commit contributor
+into Samba by Stefan "the Machine" Metzmacher from SerNet.</p>
+
+<p>John Terpstra of Primastasys announced the clean up of the Samba.org
+<a href="http://samba.org/samba/support/">support page</a> as part of the new look for the web site. John will be
+ensuring all companies offering Samba support on the site are kept
+up to date for users to contact. Thanks for looking after that John.</p>
+
+<p>A couple of weeks after SambaXP Team members Chris Hertel (ubiqx),
+Steve French (IBM), Tim Prouty (Isilon) and Jeremy Allison (Google) met
+up at Microsoft to attend the Microsoft File Serving Plugfest. Lots of work
+on Samba's SMB2 implementation was done and tested with Microsoft's SMB2
+test tools. Kerberos support was added, locking and oplock fixes went into
+the code. It is now feature complete and available for OEM's to begin testing
+SMB2-based products based on Samba. We'll move it out of "experimental"
+status by the 3.6.0 release, but after consultations with the Linux distributors
+won't turn on SMB2 by default until the release after to be a little
+conservative in changing the default file sharing code to a new protocol.
+Give us feedback on any bugs you find.</p>
+
+<p>The rate of Samba development is picking up. Tridge showed a slide at
+SambaXP that illustrated how Samba has one of the highest change rates
+of any Free Software/Open Source project in the world, even surpassing
+the mighty Linux kernel in check-in rate. Sometimes it's like riding
+a dragon, but as everyone knows, dragon riding is really fun :-).</p>
