Hi
I use Syncthing on my Android and Linux devices and it works well as open source alternative sync tool.
There is already an arm build and I am wondering if anyone is skilled and willing enough to port Syncthing to Kobo. Syncthing does not require an interface because it runs a small web server for the interface so all we need is a working binary.
Having ST running on Kobo means that we could have an alternative way of sharing and syncing our books, settings etc.
Naturally running a sync app all the time is no good option for an erader due to battery concerns. However the user can run and quit as she wishes, or it can run as a service that starts only when there is wifi around.
Anyway it is an idea.
