We've moved the development code base to 2.22 a few days back. 

It should be able to build evolution-mapi-provider tarball against any
of the recent versions of evolution.

Packages are available in openSUSE build service [0]. I've been
sucessfull in building them for openSUSE 10.3 & Fedora 8 ( Evolution
2.12 ) . 

I would be very happy if somebody is willing to take up resposibility
for building it for Ubuntu / Debian in openSUSE Build service (I'm
familiar with Build Service) or anyother repositories. :)

Nice!

Jelmer [1] has debian builds for Samaba4 and libmapi in his apt
repository [2].

I'm sure he would be happy to glad to get the builds for the
evolution-mapi-provider plugin. He hangs out in #evo-mapi @ irc.gimp.org
and #openchange in irc.freenode.net.
