For individual one way transfers, this would relatively straightforward,
assuming that the relevant xml schema are well defined. As a proof of
concept, I use separate one way transfers to sync my org files with
google's calendar. Messy and ad hoc but it works; search the mailing list for
a description of how I did this -- I'm offline at the moment so cannot
search myself. Alternatively, look at
[Worg]/org-tutorials/org-google-sync.html
for a tutorial written by Arun Persaud that might give you an idea of
how this can be done.
HTH,
