-[FIXME: Describe]
+The wicket/ticket support is rewritten from scratch.
+
+A `wicket' is an object that supplies authentication tickets. The
+following user-level functions are available for manipulating
+wickets:
+
+- int mu_file_wicket_create (mu_wicket_t *pwicket, const char *filename);
+
+Creates a wicket associated with the ticket file `filename'
+
+- int mu_wicket_get_ticket (mu_wicket_t wicket, const char *user,
+	                    mu_ticket_t *pticket);
+
+Obtains authentication ticket for the given user.
+
+- void mu_wicket_destroy (mu_wicket_t *pwicket);
+
+Destroys the wicket and releases any resources associated with it.
+
+A `ticket' is used to obtain user authentication credentials:
+
+- int mu_ticket_get_cred (mu_ticket_t ticket,
+			  mu_url_t url, const char *challenge,
+			  char **pplain, mu_secret_t *psec);
+
+Obtain plaintext and secret credentials for the given URL and
+(optional) authentication challenge. Usually, the plaintext credential
+is a user name, and secret one is the corresponding password.
