   <title>The Executive Summary</title>
    <para>
       The Evolution Executive Summary is designed to show you a
       summary of important information: the appointments for a given
       day, important email, and so forth. To see your executive
       summary, click on the <guibutton>Executive Summary</guibutton>
       button in the shortcut bar, or select the
       <guilabel>executive-summary</guilabel> folder in the folder
       bar.
    </para>

      <para>
        The first thing you'll want to do with the executive summary
        is add a service. Click the <guibutton>Add Service</guibutton>
        button in the toolbar, then select one of the available
        services.  Services may vary depending upon your system, but
        most installations will have at least the following options:

                  Pending appointments and other events.

                  News headlines for any valid RDF file. The default

       Each service appears in a small box on the screen; you can
       remove the service by clicking the <guibutton>x</guibutton>
       button in the upper right, or bring up a settings dialog by
       clicking the little wrench icon below that.
