<h3>Evolution-data-server (EDS)<a class="headerlink" href="#evolution-data-server-eds" title="Permalink to this headline">#</a></h3>
|
||
<p>With Evolution Data Server, GNOME provides a single address book and calendar
|
||
that all applications can use to store and retrieve information. Using Evolution
|
||
Data Server means that users no longer have to maintain separate lists of
|
||
contacts in each application, or manually copy events to their calendar.</p>
|
||
<p>Applications can also use Evolution Data Server to store and retrieve
|
||
appointments on the user’s calendar. For example, the clock on the panel shows a
|
||
simple calendar when clicked. If the user has any appointments scheduled, they
|
||
are shown alongside the calendar. This makes it easy to see upcoming
|
||
appointments without opening a full calendar application.</p>

<h3>Folks<a class="headerlink" href="#folks" title="Permalink to this headline">#</a></h3>
|
||
<p>People use computers increasingly to interact with their friends and colleagues.
|
||
Applications such as email programs, instant messengers, and telephony and video
|
||
conferencing applications are used to communicate with others. These
|
||
applications often provide contact lists to help users. Folks takes care of
|
||
aggregating all these forms of contacts so that you can get all the accounts
|
||
that belong to one person. This lets software present lists of people in a more
|
||
useful fashion, instead of showing duplicated people whenever they have more
|
||
than one account associated to them.</p>

<p>The NetworkManager daemon attempts to make networking configuration and

operation as painless and automatic as possible by managing the primary network

connection and other network interfaces, like Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and Mobile

Broadband devices. NetworkManager will connect any network device when a

connection for that device becomes available, unless that behavior is disabled.
|

Information about networking is exported via a D-Bus interface to any interested

application, providing a rich API with which to inspect and control network

settings and operation.</p>
