Hi all;

This seemed useful to some people last time, so I'm doing it again now.  I've been using Evolution from SVN for a few months now tracking the latest changes and overall I've been REALLY happy: so many things are much better, especially with Exchange integration, than in 2.10 or any previous release.  Applause and cheers for everyone's hard work over the last 6 months!!

However, there are still some issues.  I hope now is a good time to point them out so maybe we can concentrate on these for 2.12.1 or 2.12.2.  Others might have a different list of issues, but these are mine (links to bugzilla entries).  I've updated the bugzilla entries with the latest info I have.

As I said, I'm building Evo and all components (libsoup, gtkhtml, e-d-s, evo, evo-exchange, evo-webcal) locally with debugging enabled and running them with full logging, each instance in its own directory.  I stand ready and willing to help anyone who wants to, to work on these issues!  I've tried to order them in order of precedence (how much I want them fixed), most pain to lesser pain.

478090: Tried to create a meeting on the Exchange server, and Evo crashed when adding an address

This is a big one for me, because I need to schedule meetings through this mailing list.  Because of this problem I have to create my meetings through Exchange webmail rather than Evolution!  Luckily (in all senses of the word) I don't have to create meetings very often.

478090: Meeting acceptances for attendees who weren't listed are lost

This isn't a huge deal, but it's pretty annoying.

Thanks for the input !!
