Sorry, I wasn't calling you a liar!! I was just noting that Red Carpet is,
atm, a law unto itself as to what channels it divulges, etc. I believe there
is an Evolution Channel - I used to have it myself! - but it went with the
1.4 upgrade. I would try Red Carpet under Debian, but it crashes, and
Ximian's Debian archive is crap (task-helix-gnome doesn't exist for example,
so if there is a task, I've no idea what it's called, and yes, I have tried
the obvious :)

Were you taking the dailies or the previews? AFAIK, the only stuff with date
in is the dailies, which are just auotmated builds of a CVS checkout, hence
the date.

I have to say, I love it :) I didn't have any problems on my work machine,
but I wouldn't try it on my home machine. Having Nautilus control the GNOME
desktop is worth it alone :)

Cheers,
