Version 0.9 has been available for some time. Last week, Microsoft released their own CIFS specification, but there was a catch. According to a statement in the document, readers were not permitted to implement software based on the Microsoft spec. unless they signed a license agreement. The SNIA document comes with no such restrictions. Several organizations, including IBM, HP, the jCIFS Team, Network Appliance, the Samba Team, etc. contributed to the SNIA document."
