Yep, no major changes within a single x.y series.  Of course, read the release notes \
(they're on the website), they will tell you anything special you need to be aware \
of.

We don't directly provide any distro packages, but the maintainers of the cyrus \
packages for Debian and Fedora are doing a great job.  We don't hear directly from \
other distros much, but I guess that's because most other distros leverage Debian \
and/or Fedora's work?

Most of us cyrus developers are running Debian on our own systems, and FastMail's \
servers run Debian, so even without an official package, a source build on Debian \
will generally just work (but then you have to choose/configure features/dependencies \
yourself, of course...).
