I'd like to make a suggestion. Let's drop the Alpha and come out with an official version 1.0.
Here's my reasons. The 0.9x version are obsolete and people should be using the 1.0 Alpha versions which seem to me to do everything the previous versions did and more. It's as full featured and stable as all other IMAP servers and in my opinion is ready to be called 1.0.
The "Alpha" label scares people off and with the 0.9x version being obsolete I think it creates confusion for new users. It created confusion for me when I converted to dovecot, and distros are less ,ikely to include versions with the Alpha label.
Once you go to 1.0 you can start a 1.1 alpha series and finish it up. I know Timo has high standards but as a marketing issue I think that the Alpha label needs to go to get people to accept and use 1.0 in production.
Thoughts?
