Hello there,
some time ago, I contributed several patches from Fedora that we were
using into the cyrus-sasl fork on github [1] and if I see right, they
made it back to the official git repository. Since that time, there were
two releases on github, but none of them is mentioned in the official
cyrus-sasl website nor available on the official FTP [2] (still linked
from the fork readme).
Can we consider this as an official release? Is it planned to be
available in the official FTP? Or is the upstream abandoned and the
future work will be done on github? Adding Nacho to CC, who is doing
these releases and should be able to bring some light into that.
Why do I ask? I would like to update the Fedora package and get rid of
the bunch of patches we carry around for years (since they are
upstream), but I would not like to pick up some "random fork" (with no
offense -- I really appreciate the work Ignacio Casal Quinteiro and Ken
Murchison did so far).
