The only ones of note > that I was unsure of are named: Sorry I didn't get back to you today - I completely forgot about it! Yes - most of them are upstream. The naming has changed now that they are absorbed into git - but the commit messages are pretty close to what I had as the patch headers. What's on the webpage now is what we applied against 2.3.14 - a couple of them have gone into CVS, and I don't (yet) have a nice way to give a patch list against 2.3.14 that's also 100% up-to-date. Maybe create a divergent branch and have a "CVS bits" patch at the top of the list always.... > cyrus-md5uuid-2.3.8 You don't want that any more - it's been replaced by sha1 GUIDs. > imapd-disable-referrals Not us. > unified-murder-xfer-fix Not us. > I don't know how much this helps anyone to have the names, but I wanted > to throw them out there.

I did see that SHA1 is now the preferred way of deal with > this, but I wanted to confirm the backward compatibility if possible. It will only sha1 new GUIDs. The old md5 UUID will be placed at the start of the space, so it will look like 02xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx0000000000 (excuse my inaccurate counting, I don't care that much ;) Something like that. They all start with 02 and end with a big block of zeros anyway.
