Hello!

I found the code san.[h|cpp] code which implements notification
parsing/generation. I'd like to discuss how this feature could be used
in a SyncML client and (in the future) a server.

My original thought when looking at the spec was that SAN
parsing/generation should be doable before starting and configuring a
sync session. But that makes it difficult (if not impossible) to access
the nonce that is needed for the SAN message.

It is not possible to use SAN with a client yet, is it? At least I have
no idea how to pass a SAN message content into the engine with the
current API. If there was such an API, would the engine take the URI
from the SAN message instead of from the local configuration that it was
started with?

Now for the server, based on which information does the server generate
the SAN? We would have to start the server with its own local
configuration, then define the URIs on a specific device that match with
the ones configured on the server. Right?

How is the mapping from textual MIME types to the binary MIME type
numbers in the SAN handled? This looks like a serious limitation of the
SAN format to me, because what number should be used for experimental
MIME types which haven't been registered?
