As you pointed out, that is for mysql only.  Also, if it ever worked, it was
for something prior to version 0.9.12.

I downloaded it, changed it to connect to postgresql databases and changed
all the SQL code to match the phpgw 0.9.12 table and field names.  I then
started changing some of the mysql specifiv code they used and came to the
conclusion that the algorithm was overly complicated and would allow
unlinked records to be left on the server (you'll understand if you look
closely at what the code is trying to do).  Also, the original programmers
don't seem to have any interest in participating in the forums on thier
sourceforge web page

I had hoped to use it as a model to create the other conduits for the Palm
apps but ended up decideding I would be better off writing my own conduits
from scratch

I'm starting with memos since it is the easiest (has the least number of
fields) but am trying to set up my code so that it is easily portable to the
other apps (I even want to sync the phpgw timesheet conduit to the Timesheet
freeware Palm app)
