Summary: Groupwise evolution integration patch

Initial Comment:
Attached patch adds basic support for Novell Groupwise
to Gaim Evolution integration.

New Person dialog for both Add Buddy and Evolution
Integration can be improved in future to be able to get
name, e-mail and maybe other information from Groupwise.

Novell acquired SuSE, I think. Unless someone objects, using 
Novell (which already exists in COPYRIGHT) seems like the right 
approach.

This conversation seemed very disjoint to me until I
realized that Stanislav works for SUSE.

It looks like the copyright for all the code we've received
from Mike Stoddard is currently assigned to Novell.  I
suggest using Stanislav's company name for this, unless he
objects.  I'm not sure if that should be Novell or SUSE.

SuSE has no written policy about this, but developer names
are used usually.

I think that's what Richard was attempting to ask :-)

Isn't it more relevant what Novell's (or Suse's) policy is
on copyright assignment? Novell is already in the COPYRIGHT
file from the original inclusion of the Groupwise protocol
plugin.

If you think, that my name should be included into this
file, use Stanislav Brabec (sbrabec at suse.cz). But in this
case Mike Stoddard (mistoddard at novell.com), who did more
work on Novell Groupwise support, should be included there
for sure, too.

I'm going to accept this, but I need to know what name you'd like 
listed in the COPYRIGHT file.

This looks right to me. It compiles and loads. I don't have a 
Novell Groupwise server, so I couldn't test the actual 
functionality, but it doesn't seem to break anything.

The patch only adds Groupwise to known protocols to
gevolution plugin.

It does not fill name and e-mail while adding buddy to
addressbook. Groupwise explicitly provides this information
(see nmuserrecord.c).

For other protocols it can be done, too, but with some
limitations.

how does this differ from the gevolution plugin?
