syncevolution (was: GPE calendar sync?)

I keep toying with the idea of linking SyncEvolution to the GPE databases in addition to the Dates/Contacts databases that it already supports on Maemo. SyncEvolution works fine with ScheduleWorld and is designed to work with different database backends, so this shouldn't be too difficult, but I just don't find the time. If there is a programmer interested in working on this, please contact me. syncevolution never worked when i tried to use it.

I really would use your program, because it's a good way to sync the osso-adresses with my desktop or scheduleworld account. But I'm not able to get it working. Where is a good step by step description? I don't found one... Btw. for dates I use my own webdav space publishing my n800 calendar or subscribing my online calendar i use together with thunderbird and lightning. It's no real sync but working on a central calendar file and good enough for me. Unfortunately I'm not a programmer, but I hope I could help testing the software.

GPE calendar sync?
Hi! Just upgraded from a N770 to a N800, and are now trying to get gpe calendar to sync to evolution on a ubuntu laptop. On the laptop I have multisync 0.90, opensync 0.22, inlcuding the libopensync-gpe, and on the N800 the gpesyncd. I run gpe-calendar once, with an empty calendar on N800. Then I close gpe-calendar, run multisync on the laptop. It connects and reports that changes are sent to, and received on the N800, and then multisync reports that the sync was successful. However, from this point on gpe-calendar often reports that the database is locked. After several reboots of the N800, it sometimes works again. Anyone got ideas on this?
