Let's see what http://live.gnome.org/ProjectPrerequisites says:

   1. The project must be free/open source software.
   2. It must use GTK+/GNOME technologies.
   3. It must be maintained, and already have had at least one public release.
   4. To the best of your knowledge, it must not infringe on patents (most
      gnome.org servers are in the US).
   5. If copyright assignment is required, please first read our policy on
      copyright assignments; it's simpler to not have any copyright
      assignment.

For evolution-kolab:

1. [ok] we're all LGPL
2. [ok] it is an Evo/EDS plugin
3. [ok] see http://evolution-kolab.sf.net/
4. [ok] we're confident about that
5. [ok] should be no trouble, we're LGPL, no other copyright assignments apply

I will thus proceed and create an evolution-kolab Git repo at gnome.org.

Thanks,

	Christian
