[Gpe-list] Question about Completed Items

I posted this as a bug to OpenSync a while ago, but it's gotten no 
activity and I wonder if it's perhaps a GPE bug, or perhaps a human bug 
(as in, I mis-configured something).  Here's the report:

http://www.opensync.org/ticket/514

"I have a Nokia N800, and I have installed GPE and set up OpenSync? 
<http://www.opensync.org/wiki/OpenSync> as documented on my web site: 
http://cleardefinition.com/page/Sync_Evolution_and_GPE_on_N800/

Items created on either side are sent to the other side. If an item was 
created and completed in the same "sync cycle" on GPE, it syncs to 
Evolution, as incomplete/not started. Likewise, if an item was created 
and completed in the same "sync cycle" on Evolution, it syncs to GPE as 
incomplete/not started.

Syncing again (without changing anything) raises a conflict - in the 
Evo2GPE completed item, the evolution side clearly has more information 
and shows the status as 100% completed. Clicking the "newer" button has 
no effect: could not find revision. I selected the Evo side, since it 
was correct. This still does not mark the item completed on the GPE N800 
side.

Items deleted on just one side reappear."

Should I be filing this against GPE?  I'm not sure how much I'd be able 
to help on code hacking, but if necessary I could take a peek, or maybe 
pitch in a few (university-student) bucks for a bounty for another hacker...
