Hello All,
Is the port of Heimdal on FreeBSD being maintained? The version that
ships with 9.0 seems a bit old.

My understanding is that every five years or so, someone becomes fed up enough with the staleness of the "current" version and puts in the effort to merge in a newer version. It looks like 3 years ago, dfr brought in that Heimdal 1.1 you see, to replace the Heimdal 0.6 that nectar brought in 8 years ago. I don't know of anyone with active plans to bring in a new version, at present.
