Probably. I worked a bit on packaging 10 (hmm ... scary!) years ago
(http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/conectiva/atualizacoes/8/RPMS/cyrus-imapd-devel-static-2.0.17-1U80_1cl.i386.html),
and back then upstream wasn't that "open". But the license change might be an
indication that things have changed now?

That might be. But there are so many of them that it almost deserves a real
home. Fedora CVS is not a good upstream. Perhaps upstream could be convinced to
carry it in its contrib folder?
