Yes, it will be a native connector. We will use C language for the
development, using the same ideas as in the first connector: libsoup for
the WebDAV access. I think the build environment for the connector,
currently it is already defined and working, it is easier than for Evo
1.4. The hard thing will be that you need Evo 2.1 and Evolution Data
Server 1.1, that currently are only packaged in Ubuntu, I think.

Ok, about ex2ogo, where I can find all the documentation about it? Just
reading the past emails in the list? Or there are some docs about it?

Great! As soon as we start coding, we will need people that take the
conenctor, try to compile it and check it against OGo 1.0.

We have documented our way to install OGo 1.0 for a machine without now
software in it, using Debian sarge as our base system.

And we will document in such detail all the environment you need to test
the Noodle products.

The connector will be GPL, not sure in the OGo library also, or we use a
LGPL license better.

Cheers
