True,  you'll certainly need new XML packages for the OAF stuff.  Bonobo
will probably want the newest ORBit.  But since "buggy" doesn't even
begin to describe CORBA/Bonobo on "stock" GNOME that doesn't bother me.
 
>Does Evolution work well with a stock Redhat IMAP server???

Thats the only thing I have ever used it with.

>That might make installing the entire Ximian suite worth it.

Not to mention Nautilus is fast now,  somebody really lit a fire under
that thing in the latest release.
