this is not necessary, because $sync->authenticate will do the same.

This is the correct way. You have fully access to all sync IPC classes
located in class.ipc_sync.inc.php.

Correct.

This would be possible, too, but you would only introduce more
overhead without any advantages. This way is for Sync4j or other Non
PHP interfaces.

The IPC concept is, that you have access to the same functions both
with direct access to IPC (the way you show at the top of the mail)
and via XML-RPC. Later, there will be SOAP-Support, which calls the
same functions, only trough a different interface.

We like to hear this ;-)
