I've just read the following (part of a posting to the wine-devel
mailinglist):
-----
The most interesting talk on Wednesday was given by Julien Kerihuel from
OpenChange. The OpenChange people are building an open source replacement for
Exchange. In order to properly support this, they are working on decoding the
MAPI protocl, and they also provide a libmapi library for client
applications. As a proof of concept, they have an evolution plugin that'll
allow evolution to talk to exchange using MAPI. The talk had a couple of
demonstrations of the functionality that were greeted with applause from the
audience. While OpenChange still has a bumpy road ahead, I'm pretty sure they
will manage. OpenChange is the Samba of groupware, definetely a project to
watch.

Cheers,
Kevin
