IMHO the daemon should not be desktop dependent either. Because it will have the core sync engine.

But, that discussion doesn't belong here. The idea is to be able to remote-sync bookmarks beetween computer. For example sync office PC bookmarks with home PC. This is what Apple iCal 1.1 does, using a tiers server: .Mac (it is a paying service). For that, we'd need: 1/ replacement for .Mac synchronization. A simple WebDAV server could be fine as it is meant to store data like on a PDA. 2/ a bookmark conduit. Whether bookmark storage is standard or not is not really our business, but surely it would help not duplicating conduits. Anyway this is only ideas. Hub -- "<erno> hm.
