This is of course a very early alpha release, but so far it has the capability to download calendar items, email messages (dates not supported yet), and address book entries. It attempts to convert the address book entries into LDAP LDIF format, and the email into mbox format.

You can also use the command line tool to capture protocol data during database retrieval, in case you wish to lend a hand in the reverse-engineering process.

The library and tool are written in C++. The ultimate goal of this project is to create a fully functional syncing mechanism on Linux. My goal is to have the API easily available in Python, perhaps via SWIG, so GUI folks can use it to integrate with their application of choice; but I haven't gotten that far. People with C++-to-Python experience are extremely welcome right now, even to just give advice on some of the pitfalls to avoid on the C++ side, so when the Python integration time comes, it will be as painless as possible.

I hope to see you on the mailing list if you are interested in this project.
