Also note that cause of a few reasons involving stress on the side of
the Evolution team (feature freeze and stuff like that), and me relaxing
a little bit now, I've put the work on the patch temporarily on hold.

The current agreement with the Evolution team and idea is to make a
branch for evolution-data-server where the experiment will continue.

The camel-lite-builder tool* will, however, build you a camel with the
summary patch. You can even use the resulting camel with Evolution if
you overwrite the so's with the so's that will be installed if you
compile a normale evolution-data-server. You can of course also simply
apply the patch on evolution-data-server (which is what camel-lite-
builder will do for you)
