Agreed on the non-provisioning issue. Most IT policies will not allow non-provisional devices. I hope this gets resolved...

Please keep this thread focused upon open source alternatives to Nokia's MfE implementation. Doing otherwise will make this thread redundant and cause it to be merged into Vitaly's thread.

Agreed. I never intended this thread to turn political; I was merely seeking interest and info regarding an alternate sync implementation.
As it turns out, sync does work for me. It was a user error (they changed the exchange server hostname at the same time I got my n900, by pure coincidence). So I'll probably focus my effort elsewhere for now.
I would still be interested in an OSS exchange sync plugin for Maemo, especially if the official agent does implement real provisioning support (allowing remote wipe and enforced device locking), as I don't want others to have that level of control over my device.

Quite shocking if you consider the price of the phone, claiming exchnage server support but not being able to connect to most of them due to non-provisioning.
vote for the Provide "provisioning support" for Exchange bug https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8452
maybe someone can fix it
