Agreed that lots of people still use and will keep using Evolution, but we're targeting the new Ubuntu users, who will have only Thunderbird installed by default.
>From those that still use Evolution, we have 2 cases: ubuntu upgrades or clean installs. For the former case, everything will keep working the same (evolution and evolution-couchdb will be installed, upgraded, and working). For the latter, the user will have to explicitly install the evolution package, and ergo will also have to install evolution-couchdb. When a new Ubuntu user register a new device against Ubuntu One, we want to offer the contact sync functionality for the default email client they will be using, not for Evolution that may not be even installed in his system. Regarding U1 working with Thunderbird, is my understanding that is indeed working since Chris worked on those bits (big thanks to him!). Of course it wasn't working until the new couchdb was uploaded (last night as per Rodney's info), but it should be working with the latest couch.
