I'm wondering whether there is a ballpark release date for Dovecot 2.4. I know an exact release date is probably not available, but can it at least be narrowed to a specific quarter? Is it likely in 2023?
I have seen on previous messages that an Ubuntu repository for 22.04 (jammy) will appear with the 2.4 release.
My mail server in AWS is running Ubuntu 20.04 (focal), which I have avoided upgrading for various reasons, including websites that don't work with PHP 8.1.
Now the last remaining hurdle is the fact that there is no dovecot repository for jammy. I would prefer the official Dovecot repo over dovecot packages included with Ubuntu, because it's likely to be a newer release, and built from vanilla project code. At the moment jammy includes dovecot 2.3.16, which is even older than the 2.3.20 that I am running on focal from the official dovecot repo.
Again, I know that a precise release date won't be possible. I'm just hoping for something like "soon" or "in about six months."
Is the release so far off that nobody wants to even make a guess? It has been three months since I wrote the message I am replying to.
I don't see any indication in the github repo of a branch for stabilization work on the new version.
2.4 is planned for sometime after summer this year.

Hello, what about ballpark release date?
