I have no clue about programming such things but I am also very interested to
sync google tasks (and also google "notes" --> word documents in google drive)
via syncevolution 1.3 to my Nokia N9.

Maybe one hint/source of information for you is the code of software "gSyncit
v3.x" by David Levinson/Fieldston Software. gSyncit syncs (my) Outlook task to
google tasks and Outlook notes as google drive word documents (also Outlook
contacts, Outlook calendar).

I would really appriciate a solution to sync tasks (and contacts) through
syncevolution and also would support efforts by a donation.

kind regards
Benjamin
