The old Marvin plug in would sync things like collections, reading list, percent read and whither a book was read or not. It wasn't perfect, but it did a pretty good job considering the limitations.
Nod. I played with using Calibre's OPDS server but as far as I can see that's only useful for downloading books.

Any bi-directional sync solution would require code inside Marvin, wouldn't it?
