[Evolution-hackers] Announce: Scalix Connect for Evolution

["Carsten Guenther" <Carsten Guenther scalix com>]

Hello fellow Evo-hackers,

it is my pleasure to announce the availability of Scalix Connect for 
Evolution, a full-featured Evolution 2.4 connector for Scalix 10, which 
has been released today. Scalix Connect for Evolution provides full 
integration with the Scalix server, including email with public folders, 
calendaring & scheduling, addressbook and system-directory lookup 
through LDAP and much more. Through the use of ical, interoperability 
with other systems is guaranteed.

Scalix Connect for Evolution is also our first open-source project. The 
source code is available from the Gnome CVS (module 'evolution-scalix'), 
and binary packages are provided for download from the Scalix homepage 
(www.scalix.com). We encourage everyone to give it a try (the Community 
Edition of Scalix 10 is free), file bugs on bugzilla.gnome.org and start 
hacking on it. For the time being Christian Kellner and myself are the 
maintainers for this project.

Last but not least, kudos to Christian who did a wonderful job for us 
during his summer vacations and thanks to the people on this list that 
helped out with any questions we had. Also many thanks to the people at 
Scalix (esp. gelliot aka Mr. ical) who helped making this product real.
