Shouldn't be that hard :). I think calendar has to be interfaced via EDS than Evolution. This way even contacts can also take the advantage.

Evolution has quite a few hooks where you can plug code. We can add more hooks if required. But do you have a plan of what you are trying to achieve through DBUS interface. I think once you can close on that, we can easily expose hooks for the evolution-dbus-plugin. For some hints to start with, you can looks at the new-mail-notification plugin in Evolution which uses DBUS. > > In my opinion, exposing a lot of Evolution's functionality through DBUS > would allow for better integration in the desktop. Sure. This sounds exciting to me.
