The option to perform bidirectional sync does not appear as a config option. The Edit Filters screen only supports first plugin or second plugin syncronazation; the both option is missing.
In actual operation MultiSync syncs contacts bi-directionally. However it does not sync calendar events from the remote PDA, Zaurus, to the Evolution database.
On the second part, where are the timestamps kept? I have looked in the database on the remote Zaurus and do not find a timestamp.

MultiSync has always done bidirectional sync (but there is an option to cripple it and filter out data in some direction, meaning you get unidirectional).
The task of the sync engine is to keep track of ID number pairs so that we know that "Joe Sixpack" on one side actually is the same entry as "Joe Sixpack" on the other side. Then each plugin is responsible for reporting the changes since last time (and this is sometimes done via time stamps). The changes are sorted out and pushed to the other side by the sync engine.

Multisync .8 sync options support unidirectional direction option. The doc seems to support bidirectional.
Is this a future option?
How is uniqueness preserved?
Is there a time stamp in the record??
