+The discussion on this proposal seems to have died out without reaching\r
+a conclusion. David M expressed a strong preference for some kind of\r
+modification time field in the database.  Gaute agreed with some caveats\r
+that such an approach could solve his problems as well. On the other\r
+hand, nobody seems to be actually working on such an approach at the\r
+moment.  Gaute and or David do you have any interest in revisiting the\r
+series id:1323796305-28789-1-git-send-email-schnouki@schnouki.net and\r
+seeing if it can be reworked into mergeable shape? I suspect in\r
+particular something needs to be added with respect to message deletion\r
+Thomas, are you still running some variant of these patches?\r
