[Kolab-devel] [CLSABRT][UPDATE] KEP #14: Non-conflicting edits of RFC5228/Sieve scripts by multiple editors

[Georg C. F. Greve]

Hi all,

In theory, the approval period for KEP #14 ended tonight.

In practice, I received very good and helpful input from Stephan Bosch, the 
author of the Dovecot Sieve interpreter, who provided some very good 
additional references at had one suggestion for improvement.

In fact, one part was already (slightly) deprecated by an update to the draft 
for the include extension which came out last week. So I've worked in all the 
references into an updated draft, available at

	http://wiki.kolab.org/User:Greve/Drafts/KEP:14

and the differences are easily visible at

http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php?title=User%3AGreve%2FDrafts%2FKEP%3A14&diff=11842&oldid=11778

As these are mostly background & explanation, I guess we could re-close 
quickly, but Stephan also raised the question whether it is wise to rely upon 
the variables extension for editor name & version, as not all IMAP servers may 
support this.

So his suggestion is to move this into the comments. Simultaneously, having 
them as variables is not a problem for the IMAP servers we're primarily 
targeting (Cyrus & Dovecot).

Personally I think comments would work just fine, so I'd see it as the simpler 
approach, but then I'd like to give in particular Alec, who I know has already 
begun work on KEP 14 implementation, a chance to provide input.

Once this is cleared, let's close this quickly and hope that's it. :)

Best regards,
Georg
