This project has a name space collision with the Hydrogen drum machine.

Yep. When I saw the headline, I thought "oh! Hydrogen (the drum machine)
has a new version, cool!" For me, not only does this project duplicate a
name, but it duplicates the name of something with which I'm much more
familiar.

It also references this "Java" thing again. 'Sun Java Enterprise System Calendar Server (SJESCS)' which hasn't anything to do with java the language, java the virtual machine byte code or java the object oriented libraries. But of course neither SJECS or Hydrogen is written in or uses any "java component". Duh.

Name collision

FWIW, I exchanged a note with the author; he sees the problem and is out shopping for a new name.

Thanks to Corbet & Comix for notifying me. I'm now looking for a solution for this. Will let you know in time.

Thanks, all guys.

The project name of 'Hydrogen', the Evolution connector for Sun Java Enterprise System Calendar Server (SJESCS) has been changed to 'evolution-jescs'.

Cheers.
