OpenSync reloaded? :-)
Oooh, a bit of a low blow :-)
I certainly learnt a lot from spending quite a lot of effort trying to
make OpenSync work! The main one (and the main reason I am here) is
that sync is **really** hard to do in the general case.
Syncevolution does a great job on two-way sync but it would be really
good to solve the multi-way problem one day :-) But that would require
some significant work by a team who are willing to look at and learn
from all the previous attempts. I sometimes wish Philippe Kahn had not
lost interest in sync.
