This bug affects me too, while syncing to Ubuntu One. I have about 40 notes.
Tomboy 1.6.0 (1.6.0-0ubuntu3-1mint1) on Linux 2.6.38-8-generic #42-Ubuntu 11.04 SMP Mon Apr 11 03:31:24 UTC 2011 x86_64

I removed all notes locally, tried to sync again a bunch of times, and
Tomboy crashed every single time.

WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE YOUR NOTES AND SYNC AGAIN.
I thought removing ~/.local/share/tomboy would fix the problem and get me a fresh batch of notes from the server. Instead it removed everything from the server.

I tried everything with ~/.config/tomboy/manifest.xml revision numbers while putting notes from ~/.local/share/tomboy/Backup back, but the server would remove them everytime.
Turns out all you have to do is put the backup notes back, no need to hack the manifest.xml. They sync right back. Phew!

No more crash since I fiddled around.

@Jono, @ahaythaway:

Next time start tomboy from the terminal with a 
tomboy --debug > tomboy-debug.txt
do a sync, make it crash, and upload the tomboy-debug.txt
The devs will surely want that.

Title:
  Syncing notes crashes TomBoy

Status in “tomboy” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: tomboy

  I just installed Natty and selected Ubuntu One in the synchronization
  options. When I then start the sync it updates a few notes and
  crashes. If I then restart TomBoy and do the same, it syncs another
  few notes and crashes.
