Dear Patryk, et al,

Yes, it also came to my mind to contribute with this, although I still feel as 
an outsider in this sea of Gnome stuff. With some feedback from this list, it 
may be possible.

Let me start with a question first: what should I (we all) think about the 
status of these sites?

http://projects.gnome.org/evolution/build.shtml
and 
http://mad-scientist.us/evolution.html

DO you recommend to upgrade or improve either of those methods (i.e. that 
Makefile or jhbuild), or just forget about them?

About a year ago I tried to follow both (on a stock Ubuntu), and failed for 
some reasons I no more remember. (Probably, libgweather was where I gave up...) 
Since then, I am compiling manually using a homegrown shell script (that I 
unfortunately need to fine tune for every new release).

I agree. And it seems like, besides of troubles, you have a lot of
experience with compiling Evo, thus you might be proper person to write
such appendix, aren't you?
