Dude, you have the wrong end of the stick here. The rationale is "Evolution
is a big module, has a bunch of existing issues, but is trying incredibly
hard to join the release process in a meaningful way" -> everything brought
up here (apart from the copyright assignment stuff, but including bugzilla
and filechooser issues) has been flagged as "to be done" in a reasonable
timeframe.

None of this is intended to be a get-out-of-jail free card for Evolution in
the future. If anything, it means Evo will have much higher expectations and
attention in the next release process.

I, for one, intend to put Evolution under the microscope for 2.10. :-)
