Oh, June-ish, really.  There's some significant additions due from me any day now for the GroupWise connectivity and NNTP features, which are basically not covered yet.  Would be good to get the existing docs into better shape before adding more, I think.

Anyway, you can get the Evolution docs out of gnome cvs ("evolution" module, in the help/C/ directory); email me offlist if you want me to send you a copy instead of checking it out of CVS.
