Good news today! Got a mail from Patrick, syncevolution 1.3 released today. More information at
http://syncevolution.org/blogs/pohly...on-13-released
It brings full support of contacts, calendar, tasks and notes for harmattan devices like the N9. Great!
Thank you very much, Patrick and Ove and every developer involved in this important project.

==============
SyncEvolution synchronizes personal information management (PIM) data via various protocols (SyncML, CalDAV/CardDAV, ActiveSync). It syncs contacts, appointments, tasks and memos. It syncs to web services or to SyncML-capable phones via Bluetooth.
Binaries are available for Linux desktops (using GNOME Evolution, or KDE's Akonadi), for MeeGo and for Maemo (Nokia N900, N9).
The project moved its bug tracking from bugs.meego.com to bugs.freedesktop.org. All the old issues were migrated. Please file new issues here:
http://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bu...=SyncEvolution
The git repositories were also moved to freedesktop.org:

SyncEvolution 1.3
=================
New features are KDE/Akonadi and ActiveSync support, not only in the source code but also in syncevolution.org binaries. ActiveSync is the recommended way of synchronizing contacts with Google:
https://syncevolution.org/wiki/googl...cts-activesync
The D-Bus server and local sync were rewritten considerably, to make the code cleaner and more robust. The CalDAV backend now also supports tasks and memos. CalDAV and CardDAV can be used in combination with a SyncML peer ("bridging SyncML and WebDAV"), thus allowing a device which only supports SyncML to talk to a WebDAV service without any intermediate storage.
1.3 contains bug fixes that were not backported to 1.2.x, so upgrading is recommended. For example, SyncEvolution 1.3 is required for Evolution 3.4, otherwise photos are not exported properly. Support for Evolution >= 3.6 is in the source code, but not in syncevolution.org binaries. Further workarounds for recent changes in Google CalDAV and Funambol One Media were added.
