Heya,

It's been about three and a half years since the last cyrus-sasl release.  =
I'm wondering what *needs* to be done before a new one is made.

In GitHub I see a milestone called 2.1.29, but nothing in it.  On the other=
 hand, there's a 2.2.0 milestone <https://github.com/cyrusimap/cyrus-sasl/i=
ssues?q=3Dstate%3Aopen%20milestone%3A2.2.0> with 10 items undone.  To what =
extent does anybody consider these real blockers.  That is: *Are we better =
off not shipping *anything* until these are done, or shipping a new release=
 without these done?*  (Don't say "we should ship now and it should have al=
l these done".  That's not the question!  On the other hand "we should ship=
 but only after *these two items are done*" is useful.)

I can get some development time to throw at this, for the sake of Cyrus IMA=
P downstream users, but it's not immediately clear which things are houseke=
eping and which are serious problems.  If there is some active[-enough] cyr=
us-sasl dev who can chime in, I would appreciate it.
