evolution-data-server is the bit of Evolution that handles calendars,
tasks and contacts, which has been split out into a separate package so
that other programs can access and manipulate the data.

AFAIK there aren't any other packages in Fedora using this, though
there's a patch for gnome-panel to make your appointments and tasks
appear in the Panel's calendar; this would add a dependency on e-d-s to
gnome-panel.  The current Fedora gnome-panel packages don't use this
AFAIK.
