Part of the evolution team at Novell is doing this work. I don't think/know of any agreement for MAPI/Evolution related in that. We are using OpenChange based libmapi to connect to the Exchange Server and it works pretty well. I was looking for a pre-release this week but due to some issues and holidays in India I think this might be pushed a week or two later. In the whole I'm looking at a feature complete around GNOME 2.22 release. Unfortunately I'm not sure, if I can commit to the GNOME release or not, since this code has some licensing issues which I'm still working at Novell to clear them off. Only after that I can commit the code to the Evolution trunk. Till then I'm hoping is to have weekly/biweekly opensuse buildservice packages for SUSE/Fedora/Debian (What ever OBS supports) for testing and help us back. If any one wants to help us in getting the OBS ready, your help is welcome. -Srini. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
