Re: [Evolution] strange changes

CVS = Concurrent Version System
afaik = "As Far As I Know"

CVS is where a program's latest/greatest resides.  I've never
used it but I believe you can go to Ximian's site and find a link
to it.  I could be wrong but I believe if you download from there
you will need to compile the source code (the standard
./configure ... make ... make install routine) rather than
install from rpm / apt / any prepackaged format.  It's not overly
hard but if you are as new as you claim, that may be something
you're not ready for.

Hope this clarifies some of your questions.
