We have discussed this before, though perhaps not on the list; I have 
no trouble *not* having event notifications available with Cyrus IMAP 
2.5 on Enterprise Linux 5, but;

- We should consider upgrading our CI system to Enterprise Linux 6,

- It is not very unlikely nobody will even attempt to build Cyrus IMAP 
2.5 let alone ship off to production, based on Enterprise Linux 5...

So, it is really up to the rest of the list (especially those with the 
Solaris, -UX and other UNIX systems), for which, if I recall correctly, 
json-c and jansson are both equally unavailable and need to be built 
on/for these platforms regardless.

Kind regards,
