well, it has more providers and more granularity and controls for apps and more flexibility to enhence it (doing custom plugins) but let's not argue over that... > - disabling features I don't want (i.e. choose to not have certain features - google chat, or mail or documents or whatever) you can actually do that with the Ubuntu version with better granularity, you can allow shotwell to access facebook but not the unity dash for example where in the GNOME version if you enable a provider you enable it for the whole desktop > - Exchange Support through evolution-ews right, evolution doesn't have ubuntu-online-account support yet, that will likely come next cycle > - Gnome Documents Support same > - Enterprise Login none of the new stack with realmd, new control center, etc landed in Ubuntu yet, that's not really specific to online accounts > - Well designed user interface in fact the Ubuntu Online Account UI was reviewed with the GNOME designers at GUADEC and their feedback was rather positive on it, the design of both might get closer, I guess you will have to start your fork if you don't like that... > How should this be handled? Feature request for Ubuntu's online-accounts? > I wouldn't like those features to just disappear Opening feature request bugs is of course welcome, most of the items on that list are probably things that make sense to support -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1040193 Title: Redundant ubuntu-online-accounts and gnome-online-accounts panels using a session other than Unity Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: To reproduce this, close gnome-control-center and run the following command: env XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME gnome-control-center Note that there are two Online Accounts panels: one for ubuntu-online- accounts and one for gnome-online-accounts. This is very unpleasant. These two panels claim to do the same thing, but ultimately they have nothing to do with each other. To make matters worse, the gnome-online-accounts panel doesn't appear to do much of anything by default (except probably with Evolution) since Empathy has been built to use ubuntu-online-accounts — to the extent that Empathy will open that configuration panel when the user chooses Accounts from its menu.
