If somebody is to be blamed -- it's me. I made the changes to smbfs
because I did not want netbios name lookup and password encryption in
the kernel or any different mount program, as smbclient already has
all of it. Then I finished my exams and had to start working. I simply
do not have the time to finish the job. I even did not compile a 2.1
kernel for several months.

I can only apologize, but I do not have the time to work on it
anymore. I think that I offered 'official' maintainership to Bill one
time, as he did great work on debugging smbfs. Bill, are you still
interested?
