Cyrus-devel Digest, Vol 114, Issue 11

[Chris Davies]

Hello,

Just a few thoughts from today

-There is another project called the 'Cyrus foundation'
(www.cyrusfoundation.org). For SEO, should we use 'Cyrus IMAP
foundation'?

-The about pages from https://cgit.cyrus.foundation/cyrus-imapd/about/,
https://cgit.cyrus.foundation/cyrus-sasl/about/ and
https://cgit.cyrus.foundation/cyrus-sasl/about/ are blank. Could we add
some text here, or a a link to https://cyrusimap.org/ ?

- From README.git:
> The latest development code is on the branch called 'master', and the
> latest code destined for the stable release is on the branch
> 'cyrus-imapd-$major-$minor'. So the current stable is called
> cyrus-imapd-2.4

Throughout the documentation, there are many references to the 'current'
version, it seems like a lot of effort to keep these up to date. Could
we dynamically generate these? or not use version numbers in places
where we don't need to?

-/home/tester/cassandane/doc/setting_up.txt Step 0:
> gnb> cd ~/my/cassandane/workarea gnb> make
This folder is empty. 'make' works in the parent directory but not here.
I think I've missed a step, any suggestions?

Step 4:
> "Partially installed Cyrus build in a temp directory. This is
> what I use."
Could we avoid use of first person?

Cheers, Chris
