[dev] Horde translation

I'm not entirely sure I follow you. Do you mean to always call bindtextdomain() 
with the value of 'horde', instead of the individual app name? Or to have 
a 'horde' translation (horde.po, horde.mo), and to switch to it? I don't see an 
advantage of the former, and the latter doesn't make sense to me because you'd 
have to switch so often, but maybe I'm misunderstanding you?

Subject: Re: [dev] SyncML

Hi,

I didn't have the time to take a really close look at it, but at least it seems 
it could become a winning standard. The list of supporters contain Panasonic, 
Nokia, Palm, IBM, Psion, Lotus, Motorola, Starfish, Ericsson. MS will probably 
get on the train in four years when everybody's already using it! ;-)
I just saw that the new Nokia 6310 will already support it.

Available is a bunch of specifications for protocols, DTDs and bindings.
Interesting for horde is of course the synchronisation by http. The 
specification defines a new content-type. Synchronization is done with request 
and reponse headers and a xml body containing the data and rpc calls. Reminds 
me somehow of SOAP.

They also introduced (or borrowed - I haven't heard of it before) WSP: Wireless 
Session Protocol, that enables synchronisation by WAP. I think this will be 
even more interesting for horde because the first clients implementig syncml 
will probably be mobiles. But first we should have a working wap representation 
of horde before starting to think about implementing syncml! ;-)

If someone has more knowledge or thoughts on SyncML, they're welcome.

Jan.
