I can tell you that 2.1.27 was built from master.  The 2.1 branch might have been created in anticipation of master becoming the dev branch for 2.2, but I don't know that for certain.

I have just forwarded an email that was sent regarding Cyrus IMAPd release process to this list for discussion.

Hello,

I'm starting to go through the issues queue and pending pull requests, and would like to start merging in some fixes.  However, I'd like to know what procedure(s) etc should be followed, if they exist.  Also, I have questions on the overall state of the git repo.

There is a cyrus-sasl-2.1 branch that seems to have not been touched since 2011.  It appears that cyrus-sasl-2.1.27 was cut off of the master branch?

This seems like an odd development path, I would have expected 2.1.27 to come from the 2.1 release branch generally.

Can anyone provide information on what the intention is with the repo? Should all work simply be done against master, and all releases cut from it?  Should the 2.1 release branch be caught up with master and then used for releases after that point?

Thanks,
Quanah
