Re: [evolution-patches] String freeze-breaking patch: Make evo desktop file HIG 2.0-compliant

[Rodney Dawes <dobey novell com>]

As JP stated, we prefer to use "Evolution" simply. As for the HIG,
that's a pretty sad argument, since the only applications in my menu
which seem to actually honor that, are the ones that would generally
contain "Gnome" before them. The term "Groupware" causes more confusion
than help, so I'd rather we leave it out. After 2.0, we will split up
the menu items a little more, and will have different entries for each
component.

This patch should not go into 2.0.
