Hi Jason,

What features would these be? ( I am very interested in the multiple domain
debate)

When Cyrus 2.2 is released OpenPKG will automatically create an updated
package for it (the build is system is largely automated).

We will then pick it up through the build scripts which download the latest
packages from OpenPKG. 

Of course if there are major changes we will then need to update the configuration
file templates. These live in CVS in server/kolab/kolab/*.template

Hope this gives you enough insight!

Regards,
Stephan
