The EPlugin system introduced in Evolution 2.2, exists to provide modular extensions to Evolution by providing a simple, practical, language-neutral approach to extending the Evolution groupware suite. Thanks to EPlugins, users of Evolution can have extended functionality and developers can easily enhance Evolution with minimal effort.

EPlugin's goals:

* Provide a language independent invocation mechanism
* Allow extension of parts of the user interface and processing elements
* Require minimal extra or foreign code to implement in the core application
* Require minimal interface code to implement the extensions
* Not to impact performance or increase resource usage unduly
* Versioning
* The ability to extended itself fairly easily

Awesome. Can someone make a plugin so I can use my pda with evolution? Then I'd be able to use the software. Apparently it's a languishing bug that no one cares about.

I would really like to see a plugin to have RSS feeds available just like Mozilla Thunderbird, as Blogs & Newsgroups section in the mail view. That really made life easier!

I have been complaining about this since the 1.5 dev releases, but was given a, "If you want to maintain it, then do it. Ortherwise, get used to it, because we don't want to mess with it." reply everytime I've said anything about it.
