dovecot - Jan 2009 - Permission to distribute Dovecot run file

I am working on updating the Shupp toaster,  http://shupp.org/toaster/ 
a set of files and instructions for installing qmail, vpopmail, 
qmailadmin and squirrelmail. Two of my most important goals are 
switching the imap program from courier to Dovecot, and closer 
integration with OpenSuSE. (Which I run my mail servers on.)

To follow the style of the toaster I need a place where I can obtain the 
init.d script from  http://wiki.dovecot.org/DovecotInit

I would prefer to have permission to host the file myself so I don't 
have to worry about creating patches if there is ever a need for my run 
file to be different from yours.  If that is not acceptable, would you 
please either provide a URL where I can download just the run file, or 
include it in the distribution.

Thanks,
Rick

Most of that file was created by me. I consider is to be public  
domain. I doubt the people who did the two small modifications would  
object. So I updated the wiki page to mention the license.

If You 'really' wants a closer integration with openSuSE You can use
the init file wrote by Mads Martin Joergensen and Marcus Rueckert.
You can find this file on the dovecot packages provided here[1] or at
the openSuSE Build Service project for mail servers[2].

Anyway, there's a lot of implementation needed on vpopmail.
Dovecot development is flying, Qmail stills updated even years go by,
but vpopmail seems stopped, either on CVS. But you already know that
