I was planning to look at it for MDV while I was there, but never got
time. Would be nice to have it for Fedora, but there are other things
which take priority (sorting out syncml, getting the blackberry plugin
in, remembering what little patches need to get put it from mdv to fix
various little issues).

I suspect that when we're actually in a position to do any sane kind of
sync with KDE 4, we'll also be in a position to use the KDE 4
kitchensync. That sort of seems like the pace of development, to me.
