Yeah. Eventually, I'd expect even the various simple standalone apps to integrate with each other in some way - for example "Create event" in Geary to create an entry in the new California calendar app - it's really useful. I understand that the different applications will benefit average users that may only use a subset of the features that evolution provides. > I can imagine that Geary will replace Evo as the default email client > in > Fedora.

I was just worried because I've been regularly filing bugs against Evo and was looking forward to the new fixes - the talk of replacing it caught me a little by surprise. :) -- Thanks all for the clarifications, Warm regards, Ankur (FranciscoD) http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha Join Fedora!
