How is Evolution doing?

[Shadoglare]

Haven't seen any posts on this in a little bit... How close is Ximian's Evolution to being a stable program?
It looks very, very sweet - but as I recall it had a glitch that caused it to accidentally delete all of your mail every now and again :rolleyes:

Well, version 1.0 is supposed to be released sometime this fall. I'd keep checking the Ximian (http://www.ximian.org) site and wait for that.

Get it now!

It's in Beta 5. It's gotta be solid by now!

This is a quite little offtopic...

The thing that I don't like about evolution is that it creates the stupid ~/evolution directory.

Why does it do this? There are no files in that dir that I want to edit by hand. It should keep it's crappy debug files out of my face.

I have evolution installed on my computer but every time I start it up it creates that stupid dir. It annoys me so much that I always end up typing "rm -rf ~/evolution" right away.

Nautilus also puts crap in your directory.

Is it so hard for these guys to put a blinking period infront of their filenames?
