Right now on OBS we also have Debian and Ubuntu packages (also
aged). Due to longer release cycles I currently prefer Debian (instead
of Fedora) to run my Kolab server on. Let's see how this works out.

The certificate on obs.kolabsys.com is expired. Can we get a renewed
certificate? On my public facing system I use letsencrypt and am happy
with it.

The git repository looks like it deploys kolab in docker containers. For
setup tests that seems useful, but for long lived services I currently
prefer a regular VM (but besides simple tests I've not used docker at
all).

Will do - nice to see what's moving now.
