[Evolution] Evolution 2.6 + friends and beyond

[Heikki Henriksen]

Hello all :)

So, finally evolution 2.6.0 was accepted through NEW and into
experimental this evening :)

Gtkhtml 3.10.1, evolution-data-server 1.6.1 and evolution 2.6.1 are all
ready in svn for uploads to unstable but we have to wait on the stack
below them (gtk/libgnome/libgnomeui etc) to get fixed after the removal
of libXrender.la/libXcursor.la. Those will probably be ready in a couple
of
days, and the new versions of our stuff can go into unstable.

Gustavo Franco (stratus) has done a good job in pushing stuff using
gtkhtml3.6 over to gtkhtml3.8/3.10, so soon we will be down to one
source-package of gtkhtml. This could probably be maintained fully under
the pkg-evolution-umbrella. 

Kitame: do you have any comments to this or would you maybe still like
to be main maintainer of it, with pkg-evolution-maintainers as
co-maintainers?

We should also probably look into integrating the other
evolution-related stuff closer, now.

Lawrence: you've got access to the svn-repository. Would you like to
import and maintain evolution-exchange in there? Since I don't use
exchange I haven't taken a look at it yet, but I hope it won't be to
much work to update it to 2.6?

Jeff: would you like us to maintain evolution-webcal in pkg-evolution?
It's team-maintained by pkg-gnome at the moment, but it would probably
be sensible to keep it closer to the core.

Two more things: 
I've added this list + archives to news.gmane.org, so it's easily
accessible over nntp.

I've also added http://wiki.debian.org/Evolution   Feel free to add
to/update that page :)

Cheers :)
