Sync 101 - Samples for the Microsoft Sync Framework

Microsoft Sync Framework - 3 (more) New Sync Samples - Sync 101 for Sync Framework SDK v1.0

"We have a couple more synchronization samples for you to take a look at.  These C# samples are based on Sync101 which is a sample template that allows us to show specific concepts relating to Sync Framework.  All of these samples have been updated to work with the latest v 1.0 release of Sync Framework SDK .

I am particularly excited about the remote change application sample (RCA) as it has been a common request to understand how to integrate Sync Framework with technologies like WCF and enable a service to manage the server provider componets of the Sync Framework. 

Each of the samples use the the SQL MetadataStore store for the metadata information for each replica database. This greatly simplifies the logic required to implement data synchronization between data stores. In these samples three in memory data stores are used to show how data collaboration can be accomplished and how the Sync Framework helps to minimize P2P complexities such as data conflicts / resolution and data deletions.

I like the concept behind MS Sync (and that this could very well help us stop re-inventing the sync wheel). Now to get off my butt and start sync'ing something... ;)
