* Package name    : libfunambol-cpp-client-api
  Version         : syncevolution-0.8.1
  Upstream Author : Funambol Inc.
* URL             : http://core.forge.funambol.org
* License         : AGPL
  Programming Lang: C++
  Description     : cross-platform syncml client stack

Long description, from web site, needs improvement:
---------------------------------------------------

This SDK allows to integrate a syncml stack in a C++ application on a
variety of platforms. Currently, Windows, WinMobile and Linux are
actively supported, but you can easily build it on other Unixes or other
mobile/embedded platforms.

Comments on Licensing:
----------------------

Although there continues to be a certain amount of debate about the AGPL, 
there is at least one [1] AGPL package in main, so for the moment I am going 
ahead on the assumption that ftp-master will let it in.

Comments on upstream sources:
-----------------------------

Patrick Ohly maintains a git repo with the official sources, plus some patches.
at 

   http://github.com/pohly/funambol-cpp-client-api/tree/master

Since my main goal is to get Patrick's Syncevolution packaged, I will
probably use Patrick's git repo as upstream. Alternatively I could
essentially duplicate Patrick's efforts by starting with pristine
upstream and applying the same set of patches.  Let me know if people have 
ideas about the "right way" to proceed.

As this package is no longer a build-dep for syncevolution, I am
closing the bug.
