 Ok ! I was thinking about syncing directly between palm and horde
 without the man in the middle (palm desktop) - I must say I don't use
 palm desktop which may explain why I didn´t understand. I must give a
 look to yahoo's way of doing it.

 I think it can be just a matter of adding some more logic to merge
 change in both databases (kronolith an Datebook.pdb). But I'm not sure
 on how to manage conflict (I don't know how traditional sync resolv the
 problem : i.e. when a record is delete on a side, and updated on the
 other side ) and how to manage difference between database (kronolith
 has some field that palm database lacks - category, for example).
 A way to solve difference, would be to add textual information in the
 palm note field which give the corrresponding information ...

 I'll try to get some time this week-end to give a try...


 Another subject : In nag (as in palm Todo), I lack the possibility to
 add a recuring task. Is there a plan for that ? Must I give a try based
 on kronolith recuring event implementation ?

 PS- work on horde cd burning module still on the way... But there is
 still lot of things to do..
