I should take the credit sounding like a the broken record, e.g. complaining about something without getting specific enough for anything constructive to happen.

It's been a while since I tried to install those packages. I'll try getting it all working again this summer. Maybe then I'll have something to offer.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record on this list, if you have specific suggestions about documentation improvements (especially with well-written patches), they are always welcome.

I think that's optimistic.  The number of imsp installations *might* be
in the triple digits, but I doubt even that.  I have absolutely to
quantitative data to back up that statement, of course! :)

Yeah, the number of IMSP installations is probably pretty low. Especially given that I suspect the total number of Cyrus IMAP installations is somewhere in the thousands as it is (though always increasing.. Apple recently choose to include Cyrus IMAP in Panther Server!)
