I saw the cyrus-imapd stuff enter the picture and although it is probably 
offering nice features that we will all eventually benefit from, bumping the 
version seems to have caused compatibility issues. Maybe this is where the 
community (and other entities) get to show their value, but I feel that this 
kind of thing stretches the community rather thin.

Is there a Web-viewable summary of these fixes?
