Good to see MSSF going forward still, there seems to be a lot of good thinking (and implementation) done on it. I visited a local MeeGo MeetUp just a few weeks ago about it, and at that point it was completely unclear how the future will shape (other than "code is in gitorious").

EDS is quite good, and tracker will still get its shot at the actual media indexing. Sync is a mess of various non-complete projects anyway, so no comment on that. Other than I still hope http://www.opensync.org/ will get its 0.40 out and hopefully with that some developer interest and resources.

Very few things are complete in this world, so in that sense you are correct... Still, I hope you've given Syncevolution a chance lately before lumping it in that group of "non-complete" projects. Patrick & team has done a very good job on it.

I'm sure I'm biased from having written the MeeGo netbook UI for it but from where I'm looking, Syncevolution is not only the product that actually works very well right now, it's also the one that has most potential in the future. The feature list is fairly impressive already, extension capabilities have been proven and development is in good hands.

In short: while you wait for Opensync 0.40, remember to check out Syncevolution.

Ok, I will. And that's right that it's been ages since I (briefly) tried it.
