I am running CVS now.  The APIs have changed for the better.  evolution-
data-server now handles storage and access of the contacts, calendar and
tasks.  With this, they provide access libraries and this allows a whole
manner of programs to access and manipulate the data.  This also gives
the evolution user the flexibility of storing this data in different
ways...ldap contacts can be accessed the same way as locally stored
ones.  I believe they are adding an sqlite container too.  

For the desktop it means that a lot of apps/panel applets etc. can
access the info and present them in a nice way.  Someone has already
changed the Gnome clock applet so that it lists the appointments of the
day in the calendar view when you click it.

To note, the API freeze for all apps going into Gnome 2.6 (including
evolution) was Monday December 8th.  This means we can work on getting a
new evolution sync plugin working now.
