Ken, Ellie,
Thanks for the information.
Ellie, I see that #2100 has everything to be merged, hasn't it? What's
blocking it?
Regards,
Anatoli

Always wanted to ask what the nghttp2 dependency was for. From what
you say I infer that it's only needed for HTTP/2. But what DAV service
could benefit from this? Are there DAV clients that know HTTP/2?
No idea, but it's there if you want it! Speculating wildly, it might be
useful for JMAP?
And speaking about the SNMP agent, are there any plans to complete the
transfer of its code from the master process to an independent daemon,
issue #1765 <https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/issues/1765>?
(It needs to be moved out to implement efficient chroot)
It's more likely to disappear entirely (see
https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-imapd/pull/2100) in favour of
Prometheus (which is more powerful, more flexible, more human-readable,
and is actually used by Fastmail -- and therefore more tested). But it
won't disappear from a stable branch, so it won't be a surprise when it
does.
Cheers,
ellie
