No, just pseudo-code.

Right now we don't have a lot of real JMAP code. FastMail's implementation technically isn't JMAP. To write JMAP we took our current protocol and filed off a lot of the pointy edges. We're working to update our own implementation, and we're also working on open-source reference servers and clients.

There's a mailing list just starting here:

  https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/jmap-discuss
You might like to sign up and lurk there. I'll be posting to it soon (maybe tonight) to get the ball rolling on a few things.

Thanks, and for those, like me, that want to sign up with a regular mail account (say, like a fastmail account;) -- one can do that via the web at:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/jmap-discuss/join (ie: group-url+/join), or by emailing <groupname, spaces replaced with dashes>+subscribe@googlegroups.com.

The [ed:first, doh!] I tried (make sure you log out of google's estates first) -- the second I haven't tried, but works according to: http://webapps.stackexchange.com/questions/13508/how-can-i-s...

Note, that if you send a subscribe email, you'll be subscribing the from-email in the mail you send (I usually subscribe with unique addresses to lists and accounts, so that I can more easily see which are harvested/given away for spam abuse. So far linked-in, and adobe are top (the latter presumably due to the big account leak) -- and that's a bit of a hassle as all email clients suck ;-).
