Re: [Evolution-hackers] Marcus Bains Line in calendar

[Not Zed <notzed ximian com>]

I have one suggestion for the patch - the gconf key value should be a boolean, not an int.  It should also have a 'schema' entry.

Other than that, I would probably do the notification listening slightly differently, but that's just me - I'm also not a calender maintainer so have little weight in the matter.

Cheers,
 Michael
