It looks like I forgot to point this out because I was traveling: Plantinga commented on the recent NYT editorial by Cardinal Schonborn, where Schonborn points out that what some people mean when they say "evolution" is incompatible with the teaching of the Roman Catholic church. Plantinga says essentially that Schonborn "has it right". You can see the whole story at Prosthesis; it's worth reading the whole thing if you are at all interested in the evolution/Intelligent Design debate.
As an aside, someone elsewhere called Plantinga's approach here "philosophy by press release". I thought that was funny.
