[Evolution-hackers] Exchange MAPI Connector

[Srinivasa Ragavan <sragavan novell com>]

Hello everyone,

For Evolution 2.22 we should be having MAPI based Exchange connector
which developed in parallel with Openchange based libmapi. The team is
currently working on that and the code is currently maintianed at GNOME
SVN in EXCHANGE_MAPI_BRANCH (both for evolution and
evolution-data-server)

http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/evolution/branches/EXCHANGE_MAPI_BRANCH/
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/evolution-data-server/branches/EXCHANGE_MAPI_BRANCH/

I created the branch yesterday and we committed our week long effort
there. We now have a working account setup plugin, base camel/calendar
code and a partially working addressbook impl. Things should get to a
working shape in another week or two. I hope that soon, Johnny would be
able to create a OpenSUSE Build Service repository (rpms for OpenSUSE,
Fedora, Ubuntu and few more) for Evolution and its dependencies so that
users can install the rpms and get a feel of it even before the
release.
