I'm also very interested in the improvment of the sync project. I have a big problem keeping contact information synced without using MS windows. Since my Siemens and palm got too old and unfashionable to be used there is a mess of contacts.
So we were discussing here with someone to write a howto for at least one way syncing. Do you know if this has been done?

I can imagine helping with the XSL part. I've been working (developing) with XML/XSL for a dictionary project based on TEI. Processing was done in perl, but c/c++ is also ok for me. Let me know if you are interested and how it can be done
