Hello everybody!

The documentation sucks. So my questions:

-Which algorithms does MultiSync use for syncing?
-Can I apply fancy filters? How?
-Can MultiSync join and split single records?

To clear some things up: I want to create a syncronisation framework
for phone contacts in phone devices and a computer. I divide these devices
in clases: dumb, less dumb and omnipotent. The comptuer is omnipotent and
stores everything. Dumb devices hold only a limited number of
one name <-> one phone number relations.

All my devices are unsupported by MultiSync so far (Euracom P4
stationary ISDN telephone, Nokia 3100, Siemens CX70).

What I want (and is MultiSync a good base fore that?):
-interactive joining of dumb records:
 "John work", "John home", "John TIM" --> "John Wester", because e.g.
 it's the only John I know, but better ask to be sure...
-automatic joining:
 same as above, but e.g. there is no need to ask if we know the number
 already on the omnipotent base system (computer)
-number conversions and recognition:
 different local notations (91x xxx xxx) to international writing 
 (+34 91x xxx xxx) to local or device specific again (0034 91x xxx xxx)
 --> all refer to the same contact, what the sync framework should know
-number deletion/change:
 have a copy of what the device was knowing last time:
 same/"similar" number --> name change
 same name (name field) --> number change
 record deleted, device full --> e.g. switch class of missing record
 (less important)
 record deleted, device not full --> ??
-some rules to make dump records out a complete one


I would appreciate if someone can enlight me here to get to know better
the capabilities of MultiSync...


Regards,

>From the Multisync web page I know, that it sounds very good what
Multisync should do. - But I cant get the information whether its a good
staring point for my developement or just completly not!
