Hi Patrick, Yves-Alexis;

Thanks for the new information.  Here is where the  packaging stands for me

  - packaging libfunambol client stack is done, although not
    tested 
  - I got stalled on syncevolution with some problems related to libfunambol not 
    being built in the same tree.
  - syncevolution has slipped down my packaging queue behind other stuff
    more related to $REAL_JOB, but I haven't given up on it.

I do wonder if there is enough other motivation to put the funambol
stack into debian if it is not going to be used by syncevolution.  If
not, then we should make the leap to 0.9 beta 1; probably all the
kinks will be worked out by the next Debian release.
