Granted that MS Sync Framework does use .Net, it does not HAVE to use .Net, it 
could use OLE.DB, ODBC, or simply used to sync data on the hard drive or even 
you own proprietary data source, as long as you have some basic concepts. 

MS Sync does a very nice job of explaining the basic concept of how it works 
here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/sync/bb821992#syncex  Again, this has 
NOTHING to do with .Net, SQL Server, or any specific database, it ONLY has to 
do with the concept of syncing data between three different locations/replicas.

What I am looking for is...  Does Firebird expose the basic concept?

This basic concept is simple:  Each and every insert and update on tables being 
synced needs to a database wide unique 'version' AND the code accessing the 
sync process needs to be able to find the lowest version that is current in a 
transaction (aka is NOT valid to use yet).

I do admin this is not posted in the correct forum the correct forum should be 
the FB engine development forum, where ever that might be located.  I am 
posting here because I figure they read this forum, too.
