+ == Kerberos in Python Modernization

+ 

+ There is https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/kerberos-in-python-modernization[an ongoing project] to replace `python-krbV` and `pykerberos` with `python-gssapi` in all Fedora packages.

+ `python-gssapi` uses the GSSAPI interface, which is widely standardized, implemented by both MIT and Heimdal Kerberos, and much more user-friendly.

+ 

+ None of the packages has been removed in Fedora 28 but the following packages should be considered as deprecated:

+ 

+ * python{2,}-kerberos

+ * python2-krbV

+ * python-urllib2_kerberos

+ * python{2,}-requests-kerberos

This PR contains the draft release not for Issue #91'Kerberos in Python modernization'. @rharwood please would you review the text and let me know if anything needs to be added, changed or removed?
