sync4j/transport/http/server/Sync4jHttpServlet.java is the servlet
invoking the EJB, SyncBean.  You are looking for src/xml/webapp/web.xml, I
believe.

Roughly,

	src/java <-- contains all java files
	src/metadata <-- metadata files such as MANIFEST.mf
	src/xml	<-- test data files, deployment descriptors, etc.

What kind of client?  You mean a j2me client?

I haven't looked into setting up j2me client unit test.
tests/ClientFrameworkTest.java probably will give you some ideas on how to
write a J2SE client.

Likewise for client/j2me/ClientTester.java, but it is not formally an unit
test case.

Not me.

It's still at works by Stefano.  As of now we can sync anything yet.
You may get some ideas on the protocol implementation in
src/java/sync4j/protocol directory...

Looking forward to you chipping in the protocol implementation.

Best,
