Jmap Proxy: worth to maintain ?

[Marc Chantreux]

Hello people,

We want to use jmap-proxy as a part of your devel infrastructure of the
sympa project and see a lot of possible improvements in the codebase.

however, isssues remains open on the repo (unfixed) and i wonder if the
project is still relevant (maintained ?). Any idea to share about it?

regards,
marc

Yes, it is maintained. Sorry I haven't looked at issues for a while, the plan was to wait until the next draft and spend some time updating.

next draft of what?

waiting for that, can i cpanize + debianize the application
(maybe split things into the proxy itself and the installation procedure) ?

next draft of what?

https://datatracker.ietf.org/wg/jmap/documents/

(sorry, I kind of assumed everyone following JMAP knew that it was at the IETF right now)

Absolutely, you can do whatever you want :)  It's MIT licensed.

I'd love pull requests that make it better as well.

I've been considering working on a writeback rather than writethrough mode that will make it blindingly fast to work with, and just sync changes back to the underlying IMAP/SMTP/*DAV servers asynchronously.  Clearly if there's an incompatibility, then things might unwind in a way that they can't if you always write through to the underlying store rather than updating the local store, but having the proxy be a standalone JMAP server with a sync layer is tempting.
