Yesterday I was talking with one of my Colleagues about the Kolab
project's use of some of the newer features of IMAP, notably, annotations
and myrights.

It turns out Kolab ships a patched PHP to do this properly, and they've
been maintaining these patches for quite some time. In fact, they're up
to date with 5.3.2, as seen here:

http://kolab.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs-kolab.cgi/server/php/patches/php-5.3.2/

Now, the myrights patch was actually submitted as a feature request here:

http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43948

Which, it seems, has sat unattended for the past 2.5 years. I'm not sure
if the annotations patch has ever been submitted.

I'd like to get these patches into mainstream PHP so that we don't have to
ship some weird patched kolab-only IMAP module in Debian and Ubuntu. In
fact, I'm quite opposed to doing that at all, but this means having a
broken Kolab in Debian and Ubuntu (as I understand it, Horde uses the
myrights patch too). I'm just wondering what it will take to get these
patches merged into PHP. Do we need to update documentation as well?

Thanks very much for your time!
