Hi Brad,

I had - incorrectly, I see now - assumed the Evolution part of the
implementation was mostly done, because of the lack of SVN updates in
evolution-mapi trunk compared to the abundant updates in libmapi
trunk.

I'm happy to hear progress is still coming along though and I'll keep
following the mailinglist and the website with interest.

Bit of praise: I consider OpenChange to be a very important
cornerstone in building an Enterprise ready Linux desktop and
migration towards Linux in existing hetorogeneous environments and I
thank you guys for all the effort you are putting into this!
