My understanding was that it was purely a new authentication method on top of existing CIFS/AD protocols.

Either way, I believe home-group integration is important, and samba is where it belongs.

As windows 8 is continuing the tradition of using HomeGroup instead
of traditional sharing, I'd like to re-request that some
consideration be given to implementing HomeGroup support in Samba.
 From my understanding of HomeGroup (admittedly incomplete), it uses
different protocols, sharing and authentication mechanisms, etc than
SMB. Therefore it belongs to an entirely different package than samba
(maybe under the samba.org umbrella, but another program nonetheless).
