It would not have to be a complex interchange format.<br>

Cyrus is nice and I have used it for decades now.<br>
Its just that moving to a new server involves searching for all
the places where data gets hidden and trying to migrate it safely.<br>
But I have found the biggest problem with Cyrus is that it works
too well.<br>
I don't spend lots of time dinging in the internals to fix stuff
so every few years when I want to migrate I have to go through a
big process of research and trial and error to try and get all the
stuff I need in one place.<br>

i assume this requires an new "interchange" format for cyrus data - which has

<pre wrap="">I did not used the new calendar functionality, but until today cyrus allows
access to any part of the data by IMAP or the cyrus DB tools.
