This will likely get the job done the fastest for you.

While any donations are likely welcome (I can't speak on opensync's behalf),
in practical and honest terms, $20 won't go far, and likely won't
bring you the results you desire.

If opensync is your favourite solution, this _will_ help... but honestly,
if you've never programmed before, that estimated 2010 date of yours
might not move much. :-)
When 0.40 is released, testing will be needed. I don't know if you've
built 0.3x from sources and tested, but 0.40 will be the prime time to
do so, and you don't have to be a programmer for that. You just need
to be determined. Don't wait for binary packages, and plan on hitting
roadblocks that will take persistence to solve, and you'll be ok.
Fortunately, I suspect that you won't have to wait until 2010
for version 0.40.
