I strongly believe that there is a significant problem with the open-
source client being named ubuntuone-client. I think that Mark
Shuttleworth with good reason wants a way for Ubuntu to make money. If
Fedora were to integrate Ubuntu One, Canonical could gain additional
customers and funding but I highly doubt that Fedora would integrate a
Ubuntu product so obviously into their distro...for the same reason that
Ubuntu likely wouldn't have "Fedora Movie Editor" by default (I suppose
Fedora could rename their version of Ubuntu One as Fedora One but I
think people wouldn't be happy...) but Fedora & Ubuntu do borrow
technology from each other.

Suggestion: Call the open-source stuff something more generic...for
instance u1 or ubunet. Continue to call the service provided by default
in ubuntu-desktop Ubuntu One (like file-roller is Archive Manager).
Consider how Fedora or Mint or whoever can provide the client with
Ubuntu as a provider.
