[Kde-pim] OpenSync and KDE PIM

[Bjoern Ricks]

Hi,

because I read a lot of rumors about OpenSync API breakage that is not true I 
want to clarify this topic on the kde-pim list. As I depicted in the OpenSync 
release notes of version 0.39 http://opensync.org/wiki/opensync-0.39-notes 
the API of OpenSync is stable and is usable for applications and plugins. To 
strengthen this statement you can finde a comparision of 0.39 and trunk at 
http://people.b1-systems.de/~gollub/OpenSync/abi_compat_report.html

I know that OpenSync broke the API several times in the past and that all 
people are waiting for a new stable release (0.40) but don't blame us for 
that. We are only a few devlopers working at a devlopment branch (that the 
current developers didn't started) in our rare free time. It is not fair to 
read wrong statements about OpenSync without looking at the source or asking 
on the lists and always to tell "opensync is bad". If you are not satisfied 
with the development please feel free to contribute! It's open source. Many 
of the kde-pim developers have already a svn account for OpenSync. 

Btw. I wrote a short comparision between OpenSync and SyncEvolution which you 
can find at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.misc.opensync.devel/4168

best regards
Bjoern
