Version: (using KDE 4.2.0) OS: Linux Installed from: Ubuntu Packages Updating to Ubuntu 8.10 with KDE 4.2, the OpenSync to KDEPim library got broken. (opensync-plugin-kdepim) From the OpenSync feedback : "You have to wait for the akonadi plugin but this plugin will not be ready before opensync > 0.40 and there will be no akonadi plugin for opensync 0.22" I don't know who have to develop what : OpenSync for KDE or KDE for Opensync... ? See also : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libopensync-plugin-kdepim/+bug/278747 http://www.opensync.org/ticket/1092
The opensync team is almost finished with the 0.40 release. This means all opensync plugins can be adapted to the new api changes. If those plugins are ready (and a new akonadi plugin is written), it's up to kde to develop a new KitchenSync. Opensync is right with their comments (http://www.opensync.org/ticket/1092). We should wait for the new plugins for opensycnc 0.40 and then this ticket will be valid.
So it's the Opensync team who write the Opensync-KDE-interface, on which the KDE team writes the Akonadi plugin ? Is the API of these opensync-plugin-XXX not yet known ?
Can anyone point me to documentation starting points for doing that plugin ? I have got the sources for all other opensync plugins from latest Ubuntu PPA, so i can get some ideas from there, but where is the starting point for Akonadi ? Is anyone already working on something ?

There is now another project based on libsyncml, like opensync is. Sascha (http://saschpe.wordpress.com/) is working on it for a GSoC project. Though it won't be finished during the project, it has the perspective a lot is done (the project ends in September).

In http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/PIM/Akonadi/Meeting2009-10 (# Akonadi SyncML Client Resource: Can be moved to trunk for KDE 4.4) and on http://www.linux.com/archive/feature/50422 (Already available are plugins for SyncML) I have found that in KDE 4.4 SyncML support are integrated. And on http://www.omat.nl/2009/10/17/akonadi-meeting-day-1-discussions-api-review/ I see too: (quote) # Work on the SyncML client is improving steadily. It will be merged into KDE 4.4. It is an Akonadi Agent and I think we still need an GUI for it, but the framework will be there. I’ll blog about it more when we have had the demo. I think that On my distrubution (Kubuntu Karmic) I have install KDE 4.4 beta2 and opensync-plugin-syncml (version 0.22-2), opensync-plugin-kdepim (version 0.22-4ubuntu1) packages. But I didn't see any about opensync or syncml in KDE interface. Where can I find this?
Any updates? Could you please write a blog post, etc. and describe what you need to get it to work correctly?
This seems to be the only way to sync smartphone address books to KDE?
What about this[1] akonadi-based libopensync 0.22 plugin? Maybe this can be included to KDE 4.6? [1] http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php/opensync-plugin-akonadi?content=132900
Is there ANY update on syncing smartphones with KDE-PIM? I'm waiting for this since KDE 4.0 beta :( I don't want to give Google or someone else my data and afterwards sync it from there with my phone... Update? Anyone?
can't see anything new at KitchenSync, but a 2011 GSoC-Project to build KConfigModule for syncEvolution should soon be ready: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107681
