OpenSync's SyncML library is one of the options Sascha mentioned.

One of the drawbacks (or maybe I just didn't understand the API correctly) of 
full OpenSync seems to be that it is not possible or obvious how the 
application running the OpenSync engine can the one of the two data 
providers.
Seems it always needs a plugin, which in the case of an Akonadi agent is 
unnecessary complexity.
