Re: [Evolution] Crossover plugin

[Mark Logan <mlogan visgen com>]

Luis, 

Thanks for the info - I tried to find codeweaver's bugzilla, to no
avail.  Oh well, I guess I can jump on their mailing list for a couple
of days and see what they say.  The whole thing is pretty useless to me
if I can't open stuff from evolution.  I just wanted to avoid having to
save and then open the file under Win4Lin.  The quicktime thing is
really cool but I don't spend much (any) of my time watching quicktime
videos.

Thanks,
Mark
