If you are happy with how an application is performing ... why worry
about it?

NO!  Evolution is top-of-the-stack, to get current with Evolution
requires a current stack; so it is a lot of work.   If Current GNOME is
important to you then perhaps the version of Ubuntu you are using is a
less than optimal choice;  Current GNOME is not a concern for Ubuntu.

But again - if you are happy and getting stuff done - why bother with
it?
