Hello guys,
This mail is to announce some of the role changes in the Evolution project. I have been thinking about this
for a long time, and I feel that this is the best time to implement them.
I am proud to announce Chenthill P (chen) as the new Evolution maintainer. He is a long time contributor to
the Evolution project and has been working in the project for over 5 years. He is well known in the
community for his expertise in Calendar component and has been its maintainer for the last 4 years. He has
been one of the prime contributors for the Groupwise provider and Microsoft Exchange Calendar. A few of his
notable contributions include libical integration with System timezone for better Daylight savings support,
single-model-view design of Calendar MVC and removal of libical fork. He has mentored interns and GSOC
students on Calendar search improvements, Microsoft Exchange Delegation support, Google Calendar integration
etc.
I am also proud to announce that Matthew Barnes (mbarnes) is joining Chenthill and support him as the
Evolution co-maintainer. He has been contributing towards Evolution for over 3 years and is the Mail
maintainer for the last 2 years. He has made significant contributions towards obsoleting several libraries,
and helping to migrate to newer technologies. He has been working on Kill-Bonobo which is a major revamp of
Evolution Shell. This involves rewriting Evolution components and UI which is a focus area for Evolution 3.0.
Going forward, I will be focusing on improving evolution infrastructure for netbooks and other devices; chen
and mbarnes would be driving the Evolution project direction and releases.
Please join me in congratulating chen and mbarnes, and in wishing them good luck in their new roles.
-Srini.
