Where did old Tasks go? [was Re: git.cyrus.foundation deprecated]

Bron,
Darn!  The only reference I'm able to find to T16 is in commit 
a412ffd97b26, which is about as unrelated to the issue as can be:

    $ git show a412ffd97b26
    commit a412ffd97b2678f8bf5da967116b8759f0ebbfa1
    Author: Jeroen van Meeuwen (Kolab Systems) <vanmeeuwen at kolabsys.com>
    Date:   Tue Mar 3 02:03:21 2015 +0100

         Add a note on Cyrus IMAP Murder Topologies that upgrade to 2.5.0

         Fixes T16

    diff --git a/doc/source/imap/features/namespaces.rst b/doc/source/imap/features/namespaces.rst
    index 8be8d3f..7c37603 100644

    @@ -25,6 +25,8 @@ By default, up to versions prior to Cyrus IMAP version
      *netnews* namespace convention -- a ``.`` (dot) character is used as the
      hierarchy separator.

    +Further implications and limitations of this convention include:
    +
      *   Mailbox names are case-sensitive,
      *   A mailbox name may not start with a ``.`` (dot) character,
      *   A mailbox name may not contain two ``.`` (dot) characters in a row,

This obviously has nothing to do with Murder and is just an editorial 
comment in the documentation.

Anyone else know what T16 might have been about? :-[

This doesn't lose any history, you can just reset --hard HEAD^ to get back to the latest master commit - but it does discourage any further pushes of commits that get lost, because they won't merge or rebase very happily on top of the kill commit!
