We'd surely like to commit to the Evo repo. We're in the plannings still, but 
it is a request from our customer that our results be made public under GPLv2, 
and if possible, be accessible via the upstream project repo.
  We have some skeleton code which mainly serves to explore the wonders of 
Evolution right now and which we will turn into production code at some point. 
We will be working on the code with - as per present plans - five active 
developers. We're using our own Git repo for now, but it would be good for us 
to know that you people are willing to host us later on (that is to satisfy 
our funder's requirement).
  We'll develop our Plugin in a way that it will be a standalone one, just the 
way evolution-mapi is. Presumably, we will name it evolution-kolab. Shouldn't 
be too hard to transfer our own Git repo to your site. Is that okay with you?

We'll try to be as portable as possible, but our main target is Linux for now. 
Using GLib and friends wherever possible should prevent us from being totally 
Linux-specific, though. :-)

Best regards,

	Christian

PS:	@Michael: sorry for the double posting, this should have gone to
	the list right away.
