 !SyncML (//Synchronization Markup Language//) is a protocol standard
defined by the //Open Mobile Alliance// for platform-independent information
synchronization.

 !SyncML is most commonly thought of as a method to synchronize contact and
calendar information between some type of handheld device and a computer
(personal, or network-based service), such as between a mobile phone and a
Horde installation.

-Horde includes a !SyncML server functionality that allows all !SyncML
capable clients to replicate their calendar events, tasks, notes, and
contacts with Horde. Some phones have a !SyncML client included (many Nokia
and !SonyEricsson phones), for others there are !SyncML software packages:
most notably the commercial Synthesis client (http://www.synthesis.ch)
client !PocketPC2002, !PocketPC2003, Windows Mobile 5, !Smartphone2003 and
!PalmOS, and the Open Source Funambol client (http://www.funambol.com) for
Windows Mobile 5, !PalmOS, Blackberry and Outlook.

syncing to to Mozilla Thunderbird or !SeaMonkey

 See SyncHowTo for a description how to sync your client device with Horde.

 Horde's !SyncML server functionality is implemented in a horde PEAR package
named !SyncML. This package is designed to be independent from Horde. Other
groupware applications can use this package to provide !SyncML as well. The
only thing that's need to be done is the imeplementation of a backend
interface for their application. Please drop a note on the horde sync
mailing list (sync at lists.horde.org) if you are interested in this.
