This was written by a person who is no longer working on the project.
However I am not quite sure I understand what you are looking for?

At some point, several month ago we did integration with OpenShift
making Kerberos work, integrating DNS and other things.
The pages you mention are the ground work. It was sort of testing
integration waters. Things might be a bit broken now as OpenShift is
moving fast. We have plans to get back and correct things however first
of all would be important to understand your interest and use case.
